<VV> Tonneau Top Information

[J R Read_HML]

I think I'd look for an upholstery shop that does cover/protection for 
boats - like for the flying bridge.

Just a thought.

Personally, I can't really think of how to construct a bed cover for a 
Rampside that is not going to cause at least some compromise on the use of 
the ramp.
