Guys w/ Hard Tonneau Covers
Do you guys keep locking and unlocking your covers or do you just drive with them unlocked and lock when you feel necessary?
The reason I ask is because I open mine all the time and it is becoming a PITA to keep locking and unlocking,say nothing for the fact that I do not want to scratch the paint.
Any suggestions or just live with it.
Thanks

I keep it locked all the time and the tailgate is a must to keep locked. Only takes like 2 mins to pop the tailgate off and with the tonneau covering it and locked makes it even harder if they tryed to steal it. Takes me like 2 seconds to unlock mine i figure that 2 seconds is worth it if it keeps anything from getting stolen.

Sweet, no more locking with key. Total cost was $65.00
You can buy two and install one on the tail gate, but that is really over kill.

This sounds like a good idea.
Since I keep all my cleaning products in the back and I constantly take stuff out throughout the day(ex.clean winshield,exhaust pipes,any bird crap...etc.) so this might be a big help.
