They might just use a fibre optic cable and a lens capturing and forwarding the cab light.I'm wondering where the brake light will tap since they provided the 12V source so people would not tap into the lighting circuit. Would really need to tap into the existing brake circuit, unless they have thoughtfully added a parallel plug into the brake circuit.
This may explain why it's not on the build sheet.Since there’s no space like a traditional truck could it be water tight against the cab? Looks like a trench where it meets the cab for rain to gather. And leak into the bed.
Had not thought of that. It would be a simpler option, that's for sure. No plugging/unplugging for easy removal.They might just use a fibre optic cable and a lens capturing and forwarding the cab light.
I'm not sure why people think that truck beds need to be hermetically sealed against the elements. Wait until you see how much dust & grime enters thru the gap at the inside-bottom & sides of the tailgate.Since there’s no space like a traditional truck could it be water tight against the cab?

never had a topper before and living in oregon if it’s not mostly rain tight then I have no need. My life is made up of dust and grime.I'm not sure why people think that truck beds need to be hermetically sealed against the elements.

Idea - five starsWe just caught a production-ready Cactus Grey Ford Maverick on the streets, fitted with our first look at a Ford-branded bed cap. The cap shows signs of styling nuances specifically designed to work with the Maverick’s design (note how the cap’s rear side glass aligns perfectly with the black plastic trim that runs up the trucklet’s C-pillar.
The cap’s roof rises considerably over the Maverick’s roof line, allowing for more storage capacity. A Ford logo is seen on the rear corner of what effectively becomes the Maverick’s D-pillar, proving this to be a Ford-branded accessory, and not an aftermarket item.
I don't know about this one in particular, but toppers are generally easily removeable if they are installed with clamps instead of bolts.Also, are these pretty easily removed?
I know, Right?Ford please put this on your build sheet ASAP.
