Time for another dumb question or so! What are the two tabs in the middle of the tonneau, with lift-a-dot fasteners for? Second, the two zippers behind each seat? Third, what would a new tonneau be w

They are to attach to two matching males on the vertical metal behind the seats. This keeps the tonneau snug and cuts down on the flapping at speed. I have only one mounted each side but they are to

1. The tabs usually would have the button-type snaps, not "lift-a-dots". The idea is you can fold the tonneau down over its support bar, behind the seat, and snap the tab to male snaps located on the

You may have noticed on the vertical front wall of the rear ledge there are two "male tabe" for the lift a dot connectors. The theory is that when you roll back one or both halves you roll it so und

I am *astonished* that anyone runs the seat all the way back on a B. You must be over 6' 5", I would guess. I have several notches to go, and I'm 6' 1" with a 36" inseam. You must have a fair amount

I find I have to really lean down on the tonneau bar to get the heel-board snaps to fasten, and as it is more to fiddle with I don't bother using it. However I recently discovered that when the tonne

Yes Not with you. Do you mean the front edge of the tonneau cover when it is fully deployed? If so the tonneau bars are nowhere near there.

The tonneau bar is actually for a top cover that fits over the top when down to hold it in up across the width of the car, not for the usual meaning of tonneau cover which covers the whole area from

Yes, those are the sockets for the bar. With the top stowed, you use the tonneau like a top boot. The front edge flops forward over the bar and behind the seats, where you can snap it down (or not) a
