We have a low-profile fiberglass cover from Checkmate on our '96. We paid
about $350 for it. I like the low-profile part, and I felt the price was
reasonable. Their website is: www.checkerpro.com . You can order it with
carpet on the underside, with a dome light, with or without a handle and
lock, etc. Here's the catch: It's black on top, white underneath, and
very bumpy and wavy. If you wanted to paint it, or pay someone to, it
would take a very long time to get it smooth. I spent hours sanding and
it's still not perfect. The fit is great though, and no leaks.

Subject: DML: Tonneau cover
Hi,
I´m planning to buy a Tonneau cover for my 1993 Dakota short bed. I would
like to have one made out of fiberglass. Which one is the best do you
think? Have you got any prices, or where it is available?
I have to order it here in germany and have to pay the price 4 times more
than original (shipping, taxes,dollar course, profit for the local dealer
here). It is hard to drive a US Car in germany and very expensive.
Thanx for your help
Stefan Bartels
Mostly I spend my vacations in the states, so that I can take some parts
back home, but a Tonneau cover is a little to large. Next vacation planned
in August 2002: Atlanta -> Cahrleston, NC -> west Palm Beach, FL
