Softopper®
DESCRIPTION
Built for the 1995-2015 Toyota Tacoma with a 6 ft bed, the Softopper is the original retractable soft truck top. This soft camper shell gives your Tacoma cab-high covered protection, then folds forward toward the cab for full bed access in seconds. It replaces heavy fiberglass and metal camper shells with a lightweight canopy that handles sun, rain, snow, and everyday hauling, giving you cab-high cargo room a flat tonneau cover can't. Compare a soft vs. hard camper shell on weight and everyday access. Non-adhesive weather stripping runs beneath the Softopper bed rails, sealing along both sides of the truck box to help keep out dust, moisture, and road debris. Keep your tools and gear covered and out of sight, then open the bed when a bigger load calls for it. Most models clamp on with no-drill C-clamps and install in about 40 minutes on average, with no permanent modifications, and one person can remove it in seconds. Check your exact year and bed length on the Softopper for the Toyota Tacoma page. Made in North America.
1995-2015 Toyota Tacoma Soft Camper Shell
Key Features:

- No-drill clamp-on install – Clamps to your Tacoma's bed rails with no drilling, installs in about 40 minutes on average, and stays light enough for one person to take off in seconds.
- Corrosion-resistant frame – An anodized aluminum frame with zinc-coated steel fasteners resists rust and stands up to the weather.
- All-season canopy – Laminated PVC-coated sailcloth, a waterproof vinyl that resists UV, rot, and mildew while it handles sun, rain, snow, and high winds.

Installation Instructions
Softopper® ST Truck Installation Sheet
Installation/Removal
The Softopper installs in minutes with custom clamps without any permanent modifications required. No drilling needed. Non-adhesive weather stripping provides waterproofing for your entire truck bed. It takes one person mere seconds to remove your Softopper entirely and folds flat for quick, easy storage in any space.
Modular and Versatile
Customize your Softopper for how you work and play. In addition to the fully open and fully closed configurations, the canopy’s side panels and rear window roll up for easy access. No more crawling through the bed to get to gear up front. It’s also dog friendly. Open up the sides and give your pal plenty of air with protection from the sun and rain. Replaceable clear vinyl windows provide complete visibility through your truck bed.
Quality/Durability
Made in North America from the highest quality materials. A rust-free, anodized aluminum frame supports a 2-Ply, laminated PVC-coated canopy. The canopy is waterproof, UV, rot and mildew resistant, and is incredibly easy to clean. This 4-season sailcloth shrugs off beating sun, pouring rain, heavy snow and hurricane-force winds. Uses heavy duty #10 YKK zippers. The non-adhesive weather stripping protects your entire truck bed. And all parts are user replaceable.
Substance with Style
Available in three colors: Stealth Black, Desert Tan, and Battleship Gray. There are three options for the replaceable window panels: Clear, tinted and solid. Looks as great as the day you bought it, for years to come.
Everyday Utility
Strikes the balance of bulky, heavy camper shells and space-limiting flat tonneau covers. Use fully closed for weather protection and security, quickly collapse it open for hauling or go safari style with sides rolled up. No significant change in gas mileage. No wind noise even when driving at highway speeds.
