    Hello, my '15 has a rear power window.

    I'm hoping to get a cap for the bed.

    I thought it'd be useful to have a cap with an opening (larger than the tiny sliding version that some trucks have) and to somehow seal the space between the cap and the cab, so it's basically one big open space.

    Then it occurred to me that sealing the space may not be doable? I noticed there is technically space between the bed and cab, which leads me to believe bed may move separately from the cab at times, which would cause any seal that isn't extremely flexible to break.

    I'd appreciate anyone's input on this.

    Thanks!

    Search around the site a bit. A couple members have done it with pool noodles or rubber.

    Leer and ARE make caps with removable front windows and Snugtop has front windows that fold up if you're made of money.

    Extremely useful info guys, thanks!
    I settled on an ATC cap with front fold up front window and "carpeting", new, lifetime warranty, paint match, out the door for $2300. Delivery in 4-6 weeks probably.
    That compression weather link will be useful.
