"The installation was a little more challenging as my truck had the bed liner installed at the dealership. The rails had to be cut down, which slowed the process. I also had to cut some of the liner to make it fit. After about 5 hours, it looks great. The lock assembly is the weakest aspect of the design and manufacture and took me some adjusting to keep it closed. Good eal though and so much less than others."

"This cover looks good and was a great price. It rolls up easily, but the lock sticks most of the time. I love the cover but I don't use it as much as I thought I would because I get aggrevated at the lock. It has improved my gas milage by 3 to 4 miles per gallon, and that's great these days! Over all I am happy with the cover. I am open to any suggestions about how to fix the lock so it doesn't stick so much. Cathy"

"This is my second Roll Top Cover. I had the first one on two different trucks.........I had it on a 1999 Super Duty and when I sold that one I put it on this truck ( 2001 ) that I have now. It lasted around 8 years........It finally rotted at the stitching around the edges.........I like the locking aspect about it because the tailgate locks too. It is pretty secure when we travel or when I go hunting. It's a pretty good product. If the powered one was a little cheaper I would of tried it......Thanks Bobby "

"Cover is of excellant quality, appearance and operational characteristics. Installation is made difficult by the most confusing instuctions I have experienced. Might have been easier to install with no instructions to confuse what could have been done logically by examining the components, deciding how they fit together, then installing in a rational manner. Over-all, completely satisfied with the cover"

"I received the cover and embarked on the journey to install it. I read the instructions online a few days earlier and hoped that once I had the item to reference the instructions it would all come together. WRONG!!! There isn't enough detail or detailed pictures. For instance, it tells you there are shims included for your convenience but you're never given any ideas as to where the shims might work best. Anyway, after 2 hours and many swear words, I was unrolling the cover into the tracks only to find out that the cover was damaged. When I called Auto Anything the next day, they handled the situation quickly and professionally. The damaged cover was picked up the next day and I had the new one a few days after that. The 2nd installation went quicker, until I tried to install the roll top canister cover. Come to find out, the plastic inserts for attaching the top were not in the package. I called Pace Edwards to complain and was assured that they would be shipped out immediately. Since I had them on the phone, I took the opportunity to voice my displeasure with their instructions. I was told that they would pass my comments on the the "lady" who writes the instructions. That was the moment of my epiphany. THEY HAVE A WOMAN WRITING INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLING TRUCK PARTS!!! No wonder 90% of the reviews online complain about the instructions. I've been married 22 years and I still don't understand half of what my wife wants me to do. Have you ever received directions from a woman? I rest my case. Don't get me wrong, women have many things that they excel in, that men fail miserably at. But writing instructions (that will be used by a man)for installing complicated auto parts on a vehicle should not be written by a woman."
