Question Pic's of Leer 700 or ARE LSII Tonneau anyone?

Looking for any pictures of a Leer 700 series or ARE LSII tonneau covers on the Lightning.
Trying to decide which to buy.
Opinions and thoughts welcome.

Thanks

I prefer the ******** cover becuase it goes all the way to the end and covers the top of the flairside. Plus it comes painted to match.

I do really like them also but there about $500 more and my local dealers don't want to touch them because of the shipping problem.
The Leer & ARE are painted also.

What shipping problem is that? I plan on ordering one for my 04 L with the remote switch.

I didn't like the ******** for the same reason. The way it covers the 'flares' looked cheesy to me. I'm glad they're a lot of different choices out there. Something for everybody.

I've read in post on this board as well as others and also 3 vendors I talked to locally that they see many of them damaged when they arrive. One dealer had three in a row and will no longer sell them. I want to buy it and have it installed at the dealer.
So with that I looked at the Leer and ARE but I'm not sure how much I like then after seeing the Gayloard on most "L's"

Hi,

From what I've read, the *******'s seem to be the lid of choice amongst many Lightning owners. *******'s customer service and there unwillingness to expedite a remedy to damaged lid problems is their most heard compliant. Most who have purchased ******* lids suggest purchasing through a dealer so the dealer has to deal with *******. Either way, your in the middle until the problem is solve, which as caused some to look for other companies from the beginning.

I like the beefy looks of the ARE lids. Good luck with your search......8sm
