Finally got some pics. I need to adjust the side rails down a little. You can see in the pics that the cover gets higher in the middle. I just havnt had time to get it fixed.





This is how it looks at the tailgate.


This is the latch on the drivers side.




Passenger side.


This is the clamps that come with all Lo-Pros made since around April.


I called and ask them about the other clamps and they had a few left in the stock room and sent them to me.



This is the support rails that roll up with the cover.


I also got them to send me some free samples of the other color covers that they offer. This is the dark gray that they have but it wasnt dark enough for me. Seems like it would look faded on the DSG.

can you adjust it down any? Mine was actually too low at first and the tailgate would hit it when you closed it. Now it probably has about 1/16" between the tailgate and bottom of cover.

I put one of those Truxedo Lo-Pro's on my Ranger last fall.

They're not cheap, but they look good (they're nice and flat) and they roll up real easy when you want to haul something, and then roll back down easy.

Mine fits pretty good a long the side rails, if I lowered it more in the back, the gap a long the rails would narrorer near the back... I would have to lower the whole cover... I'm happy the way it fits..

Its very easy to adjust. That doesnt look that bad but I prefer it to be more flush.
