    I recently bought a used Diamondback bed cover and love it. Its amazing and is a great investment.

    Naturally, bc it sat on another truck for so long the weather stripping has formed to the other truck bed. When I put it on my truck bed it fits perfect but has some gaps bc no two truck beds are exactly the same.

    My question is, what weather stripping have you used that works well to “add to” the already existing weather stripping to make it water tight? Im looking for something that wont break the bank and will stay in place for years to come if possible.

    thank you

    Too many, but not enough....
    Contact diamondback they have a lifetime warranty they may send you a free replacement for the stripping. If not I would buy a direct replacement from them. They have great customer service

    There is a video on you tube of a guy replacing that weather stripping. Looked like a giant PITA. Mine leaks a little...not worth all that extra work to get it to seal completely.
