That looks fantastic and may be the first solution I’ve seen that would work with the cybertent and have to remove the aeroflap repeatedly. Has it really substantially improved your waterproofing?
Does it not allow the flap to sit quite flush or is that just the angle it’s shot at?
After doing this fix, it rained heavily here in socal for 1 week. Not a drop of water got in. I was surprised it worked. Then after offroading for 3 days (see my other posts regarding the core wheels off roading), dust didn’t get in except near the tailgate but minimal. I powerwashed the truck and directed the water on the fix, no leak.

the aero flap might prop up a little bit due to the pressure added by the edge guard but it’s barely noticeable. When you screw the aero flaps back, you need to apply pressure on top of the flap to make sure you align the screws to the hole. Get a helper to sit or apply pressure while you screw it back to make it easier.

sorry, it’s a bit of a work to do that. Once you removed the aero flap, you’ll see the removable weather seal the slides out. That’s where you would put the edge protector. That edge protector will bump against the glass roof tightly so the water wont leak in.

Good lists of nice-to-have features, but nothing to make me upgrade to a new truck. Okay, a pass-thru would make me think about it.

If HW5 = full unsupervised, that.

Maybe access to bed from cabin with hvac. I’ve never slept in any of my cars but I would if I had a place to lay flat and put down a small mattress.

Probably would make a move just for 1, unless there is an upgrade possibility. Number 2 is nice to have in addition to 1
