Toyota OEM hard bed tonneau cover is NICE.

I busted one of the clips to hold the prop rod in the storage potision, does anybody have the ability to find the part number for a new one?

Snowman jps, go back to Ruissimo entry on July 30, 2024. He has a link there, scroll down and Real Truck sells them for about $8.00 US. (This is near the top of page 3 on my computer.)

I referenced the above video.

Somebody also posted a PDF of the instructions here: https://www.tacoma4g.com/oem-trifold-hard-tonneau-cover-pt954-35240-installed-on-2024-tacoma/

It’s about a 2-3 beer job. Easy, just takes some time. My tip would be to look at the last page or two of the instructions where they show the tailgate seal alignment picture with the 3 rubber grommets sticking out. If you have that in the back of your mind, you’ll position it better. Mine sits roughly at the top of the “TACOMA” stamp on the top of the tailgate. I found that it was much closer to the cabin than I would’ve thought (as opposed to the tailgate) but I have held a great seal so far (1 month). Very impressed with the quality.

If you have another set of hands to feed the long bolt (x4/2 each side)
down to your fingers through the tonneau, it’s much easier. If not, get something big and heavy like a paver stone to set on top of the core and bolt head, so that you can reach the end of the bolt threads while you’re laying on your back under the tonneau trying to position the lock washer and nut.
