Anyone confirmed a seal to go between the camper shell and the back cab window that works well? Also, did you have to add any type of seal between the camper shell and the top of the truck bed and around the tailgate? If so, any links to those products as well would be appreciated.

I just had an ARE v-series cap installed. There is a gap. You need the gap between the topper and the cab for flex. A lot of the toppers come with fold down windows so you can clean out the space between the rear window and the topper. I wouldn't put anything in to seal mine. It's water tight enough. Obviously not the same as an SUV that is a solid body panel , but these aren't SUVs. It's a mod to a small pickup truck

its unibody. if the bed is flexing. you have damage. i will be using a one sided stick camper seal between the cab and shell. it will not hurt anything and keep rain and snow out of the gap.
