Review on Maximize Your Ford F-150 Truck Bed'S Security With BAKFlip MX4 Hard Folding Tonneau Cover - Fits 6' 7" Bed by Danny Kamerer

Revainrating 4 out of 5

BAK Industries 48309 Tonneau Cover (Con: Mounting Clamp retrofit)

PRO:The product I received was in great condition and fits my truck like a glove.I haven't had a chance to check out to see if the cover is water tight and if the drains work but overall very satisfied with the product and would recommend it to anyone who want a secure cover that is strong and has many options for either having the cover all the way closed or sections that latch individually and also allow a cover that opens the entire bed of the truck for use. The installation was easy and instructions detailed. I would recommend prior to installation watching a few installation videos on YouTube as they were very helpful and I was prepared and didn't really even need the instructions to install.CON:The clamps that I received were supposed to fit my 2013 Ford F150 Lariat but the clamps were obviously for a truck bed that has a long inside lip for the clamps to attach to the cover brackets. My truck has about a 1" lip and the clamps were not even close to fitting.Resolution:I had to drill out clearance hole for the bolt close to the top of the clamp in order for it to clamp properly. Therefore my installation of the cover would have taken about 20 minutes to complete instead of the 1½ hors to drill out all 6 clamps.Recommendations to manufacturer or distributer:In the clamps there is a clearance slot that goes about 1/3 of the way up the clamp. Suggest extending this machined slot up the rest of the clamp so that it will fit any truck bed that either has a long inside lip or a short one as it was in my case. This would make this clamp universal for all. BAK Industries 48309 Tonneau Cover
