Message: Anybody have suggestions on where I would be able to get a cheap soft tonneau cover? Just looking for a basic tonneau cover, nothing fancy. I think my dak is a long bed?

Message: Look at the eXtang line. I bought mine a couple of years ago from the following:
www.truckxpressions.com
At the time it was around $170 shipped. Mine is still looking good, and the bed has not taken in any water.

I will warn you agaist buying any of the real cheap "for show" tonneau covers that are often on sale at auto parts stores for about $50-$70, they have "hook and loop" (Velcro) closures and they often have very cheap or no support bars. Rain will puddle up on the top and then will collapse the tonneau cover.
------------------------------------------------
I have a Le Bra tonneau cover bought it for about $189.00 It works great even in snow. The best part is the J-Channel closure it is very sturdy, and can't break like the snaps.

Message: Hey guys i have a question to add to this post, that I'm hopeing one of you can answer. I have a Lebra Tonneau cover on my Dak and its starting to wear out. I've had it for 5 years and its gone through alot of wear and tear. Lots of rain and a ton of snow. The vinyl is starting to tear and crack in places.
The question I have is this. Anyone know if/where I can get replacement Vinyl for it? That is the only thing wrong with mine and I'd rather not spend $100+ on a whole new system when I don't really need anything but the vinyl.
Any/all comments are welcome.
Thanks guys,
