The first-generation Toyota Tacoma gets a hard folding lid with this BAKFlip G2, sized for the 1996-2004 6' (72") bed.

What's Included:

• BAKFlip G2 hard folding tonneau cover assembly (pre-assembled panels)
• Driver and passenger side mounting rails with integrated clamps
• Clamp-on mounting hardware for a no-drill install
• Front and tailgate weather seals
• Integrated water drainage tubes
• BAKFlip G2 installation guide

Features

Full 100% Bed Access, Folds Against the Cab
The solid-core panels fold forward and stack flush against the cab in seconds, opening the entire bed for a refrigerator, dirt bike, or a stack of lumber. An integrated buckle system also lets you drive with the cover closed, folded two-thirds back, or flipped fully up, so you choose how much bed you need on any given day.

Solid-Core Panels With Aircraft-Grade Aluminum Skins
Each fold-flat panel pairs a durable solid core with an aircraft-grade aluminum skin, giving the G2 a rigid, secure deck rated to hold up to 300 lb of evenly distributed weight while staying light enough to fold with one hand.

Semi-Gloss Black, Built to Shrug Off UV
The low-profile cover wears a corrosion-resistant semi-gloss black finish with premium UV resistance, so it will not fade or chalk after seasons of sun. It sits low and tight to the bed rails for a clean factory look.

Weather-Resistant Seals and Integrated Drainage
Precision-fit EPDM rubber perimeter seals close the gap between the cover and the bed rails, and an integrated drainage system channels the water that reaches the seams down and out through drain tubes, away from your cargo. It is built to keep rain and car-wash spray off your gear.

Locks Down With Your Tailgate
The patented rail-and-clamp system uses automatic slam latches that grab as you lower each panel, and the latches sit concealed under the closed cover. Lock your tailgate and the bed is secured, with no exposed hardware to pry.

No-Drill Clamp-On Install in About 30 Minutes
The G2 clamps onto your factory bed rails with the included hardware, no cutting, trimming, or drilling. Most installs take about 30 minutes with basic hand tools, and the cover is compatible with the BAKBox 2 tonneau toolbox if you want lockable in-bed storage.
