Can I use it; with my toolbox?
The tonneau cover does cover the entire truck bed. It cannot be made to fit with an existing toolbox.

It is a top-mount design, meaning it mounts to the top of the truck bed rails. The rails are clamped onto the truck bed rails on each side using three clamps. The front and rear headers attach to the rails. For more detailed instructions on installing the TruXport
® tonneau cover, please refer to the
owner's manual.
I have other truck accessories. Can I use the TruXport® with them?
Since it is mounted to the top of the truck bed rails, it cannot be used with bed rails. It can, however, be used with bed liners and bed caps. If you have questions on other specific accessories, please call our sales office at 1-877-878-9336.
Can I lock the tonneau cover?

With other inexpensive tonneau covers, it is difficult to operate them in cold weather. Will TruXport® work in the cold?
The fabric expands slightly in cold weather, so it is very easy to operate – even at 20 degrees below zero! There are no cumbersome snaps or zip-strips to hassle with – no more tugging on the fabric to get it snapped. Just roll it back and latch into place. Then slide your hand along the sides to engage the Velcro® brand fasteners on the sides.
