The retractable top is forged from aluminum panels and finished in a padded polymer making it stylish, functional and easy to use. The included full-length pull strap makes it easy to open and close single-handedly.Easy no-drill installation Review: Great quality, good price, clean install. - 3 month update: Holding up strong, have to be mindful of lubricating the rails to keep them sliding well. Found out it fits my KTM 350 with tailgate closed too! —————- Great bang for your buck. You loose a little less then a foot in your truck, but I don’t haul big objects very often. Mostly towing boats and keep my wake gear in the bed. Pics show were it did indeed leak after torrential down pour and it’s just a few drops. Very impressed. The front of the bed had water as I didn’t install box drain tubes, because quite frankly I don’t care if it just drains into my bed. You sure could make it pretty water tight if you installed those. There is a small ¼” gap on each side by the tail gate, pictured the small about of water it lets in. Super clean and very functional. Solid build quality so far. Will update the review if anything goes wrong, so far so good 5/5, 1 hour install and there’s a great 12 min YouTube video online of how to install step by step. Review: DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME! - Total waste of time and money. Very unhappy!! My husband installed the top on his truck and found a dent that could not be seen until after installation. Now he has to remove the top so we can return it. Very frustrating! ## Features - Fits 2004-2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 Crew Cab models with a 5'8" truck bed.

Very unhappy!! My husband installed the top on his truck and found a dent that could not be seen until after installation. Now he has to remove the top so we can return it. Very frustrating! ### ⭐⭐⭐ This cover looks good and is easy to intall but. *by A***R on December 20, 2023* The only issue with this cover is it does not stand up the elements very well I live in a climate where summer is temp average 95-100 degree and notice cracking on the vinyl cover and got worse when going through the car wash which really tore it up. Would not recommend for Hot Climates. it only last 3years. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/52087734-switchblade-retractable-truck-bed-tonneau-cover-fits-chevy-silverado-1500](https://www.desertcart.us/products/52087734-switchblade-retractable-truck-bed-tonneau-cover-fits-chevy-silverado-1500) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-12*
