All 3 sections latch down, yes, on both sides. You can see one of them in the picture. For the tailgate seal, instructions call for two of the three "fins" to contact the tailgate. If somebody had a pry bar an wanted to get in, they would, otherwise it would not be easy for somebody walking by...
Chemical guys foam cannon (perfect for cutting down time when washing a truck).
2 bucket wash system.
California Water blade silicone squeegee.
Stihl Leaf blower.
Maguire's carnauba wax.
Throw a clay bar into the mix every now and then to remove brake pad metallic and road grime from lower panels.
Installed VML3Z 99501A42 B afterwords and so far it works great. Power washed truck today and surprisingly no water inside bed. New tailgate seal works quite well. Also installed a D-shape dust seal around tailgate perimeter to help with dust and surprisingly it too works pretty good.

After less than an hour behind the wheel she managed to break it in for me. Wondering if anybody knows paint code for the sport package wheels, and if you have any tips on repair process here. Both local dealerships wont (can't) repair this and referred me to a couple local wheel repair...

Awesome, thanks for the reply! Yeah that looks like the new lip seal, albeit not as beefy looking as the Bakflip seal. But it does have the newer triple seal. Wonder if you brought the cover out further away from the cab would you get a better seal on top of the tailgate? Where does yours leak?
Can anybody confirm this new tonneau p/n has the new design end seal that works with the power tailgate? I.e. tailgate closes and forces tonneau to seal up against it automatically. (This is essentially the Bakflip MX4 rebranded by REV). I carried over my 2018 tonneau and the lipseal catches the...
Think I have a damaged speaker in drivers side door. With heavy bass the speaker sounds like it is popping/cracking. When I push in on the grille it goes away. Need to pop off grille cover and inspect. Has anybody removed the covers yet? Hoping they can snap out I don't need to pull door panel off.
