So I decided to upgrade my tyger truck fold soft cover. It worked really well, but lately I’ve had to remove it every time I hauled something in the bed. And it’s not easy to install/ reinstall. Got a good deal on this off eBay, it was returned but never installed. 25e52073562a3918d470506dbddc4a60.jpgd5d9a45d83dff472258a4c3941117c0c.jpga33a5b257a01f241e2f7070c638e0369.jpg

Wow I love mine, its super easy to remove, takes like 15 sec. I will say if you haul a lot of big items you should have got a bak flip or stuck with the soft roll up

looks good. What you doing with the Tyger?

Well...I don’t need it. Sell it I guess. It’s just gonna be a pain if I’ve got to ship it.

I like it so far, it’s hot and dry AF out here so I don’t know how water tight it is yet lol. I need to wash it before our trip Sunday so I guess I’ll test it then.

My truck sleeps outside, that cover has been thru hurricane Harvey, various floods etc here in Houston and stays dry, if it does leak it must not be much because I don’t see it

Are those the same LED strips Boosted Motorsports used in his YouTube video?

I just tied mine into the existing bed light wiring at each rear corner. They function as normal by using the cargo light switch on the dash
