Anybody have a ARE lid on a 2004 flareside?

I am wanting to get this for my new truck and can't find a picture of the combo.

The one thing I was wondering is do the cargo cleats get covered up by the cover?

Thanks for your help,
Jeff

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe A.R.E. makes a hard tonneau for the '04 flareside.

That could be. I did call my local dealer and he said he had one but not in red. I'll just have to go over there and see the yellow one.

Here's one - it's great - IMO, keyless entry is a must.

Thanks jztbcz,

Your rig is really sharp, IMO, the Flareside reg. cabs are the best lookin' trucks around. If you ever get a lid, see one in person before selecting the color. From the side, it looks thin but from the top, it's BIG. That would be a lot of black surface to heat up in the sun. The best black option, if they ever make one for the Flareside, will be the Undercover.

Your lid does look good. I'll be getting a red one, so I will post some pics once it comes in.

I agree 100 %. I saw one for the first time at the supermarket
on a 4 dr short bed Tundra. nice and thin ..... it looked tougher than the truck it was on... I just got a free soft tonneau w/snaps
from my dealer though ' cuz his mech. scratched my wheel while
in for a fix. i swung an excellent deal - buy me the tonneau or replace the wheel that was mint when i brought it in ....
I got the tonneau .. ya i did ... i'll get some pics up soon ...

Got my lid

Well I finally got the lid. I ordered the keyless entry and the fabric liner. I could not be happier. It really looks good with the bedrug.
