I hate to cross post, but I'm looking for answers and I'm not finding them out there. I'm wondering if a contractor's style canopy off a Nissan pickup or "hardbody" (predecessor to the frontier) will fit on a 1st get Tacoma? I've seen only one or two photos of someone trying this so I thought that I would ask and see if anyone has done this.
Dimensionally they are close:
Nissan = 74.60L x 59.80W
Tacoma = 74.50L x 57.90W
I am looking for a contractors style cap so it will not touch the back of the cab. This makes me think the length is not too much of an issue. As for the width it will over hang 1" on either side, but the mounting surface on the inside should be enough to keep it clamped in place since the style of canopy is a little larger.
I was just wondering if anyone has tried this? I only ask because in my area (Seattle) the Nissan contractor caps are much more prevalent than Tacoma models.
Here is the style I'm after:
A.R.E. DCU without the doors on the back. Just the standard canopy window.
