The Retrax (and likely Gator's version?) retractable tonneau will be a no drill install - it will use brackets that replace the upper tie downs. However it two 16" drain tubes that use the bed drain holes. Has anyone considering this cover (yes cpolubin, this is for you) looked to see if the existing drain holes at the front of the bed might work? Do you think the bed side or front cover may have to be notched at the bottom to accommodate the tubes? Could notching the panels affect the bed audio sound? Do you think the existing drain hole might have to be drilled a bit bigger to accommodate the drain tube?
I'm seriously considering a Retrax cover but don't want to end up with a major engineering project for the drain tubes. What say you?
Oh and one more question. I've looked at the Gator covers too & they could be twins to the Retrax. Anyone know of any differences in quality or reputation?
Thanks to all in advance!
