When you need to carry tools, lumber, or camping gear, the Access Limited Edition rolls up in seconds so you can use the entire bed. The soft vinyl cover peels back off the Velcro seals and stores neatly behind the cab using premium straps and clips that keep it from rubbing. Because the rails mount inside the bed, you still have full access to stake pockets and tie-down points for racks or other accessories.
Weather changes fast, but the cover stays tough. The UV-blocking vinyl won’t fade in the sun and stays flexible down to -40°F, so it won’t stiffen or crack in the cold. The Element weather seal behind the cab, reinforced vinyl flap at the tailgate, and TrailSeal tailgate gasket work together to block out rain, snow, and dirt. Black powder coated aluminum rails and bows resist rust to keep the system solid year after year.
Once the cover is closed, the AutoLatch II automatically engages two locks—one on each side—so the bed is secure. Unlocking is just as easy with a single pull-cord release for one-hand operation. The tailgate stays fully functional, and with a locking tailgate you get a sealed, secure space for gear without adding extra steps to your routine.
Changing temps can loosen a soft cover, but the XT-Dial makes it easy to keep the fit tight. Just twist the dial near the cab to fine-tune the tension—no tools needed. The cover always stays snug and aerodynamic, sitting 1-1/2" above the bed to reduce wind drag and help improve gas mileage by up to 10 percent.
The included 18" flexible LED strip uses 30 bright white LEDs to light up the bed when it’s dark. It runs on three AA batteries (not included) with three automatic shut-off options. The 5' EZ Retriever II pole with a hook lets you snag gear from the front of the bed without crawling in, and integrated tie-down rings on the clamps help keep everything secure once it’s loaded.

Still works and looks great after one year! Very pleased with our tonneau as it has met all of our expectations during our full time RV travels.
The cover was easy to install. One of the clamps was slightly bent from shipping or mfr damage, but still managed to clamp effectively. Overall, great look and easy install.
I've had this tonneau cover for over a year now and it looks and functions like new. Highly recommend this tonneau.
Packaged for shipment with attention to details like making sure the cover was wraped well fro transit. Fit the truck like a glove, Looks great on the truck. Instructions were clear and easy to understand.
Unfortunately I a unable to give an accurate review of the cover due to a vehicle fire shortly after installation. The time I had the cover it worked well except the side clamps would loosen.
It was relatively easy to install. Quality looks good!
This product had to be direct shipped from the manufacturer. I was worried it wouldn't arrive on time prior to my trip. No worries needed. Came in well before I expected it. This cover fits better than other covers I had on past trucks. Etrailer comes through again. I have never had an issue with any of my orders from Etrailer for the last 15 years.
This is my second Access cover and love them. After 6 years the first one needed new velcro and got excellent customer service. This cover came with a very sturdy hook to retrieve stuff that slides forward in the truck bed. I have found this is handy for all kinds of things. Wouldn't wan't to be without it.
These tops roll up very easy when needed and keep everything clean and dry when rolled out. Most versatile top for me.
The tonneau by Access is great as usual with good fit and quality. The tonneau is capable of handling high tension which helps prevent pooling. There is barely any rain water standing. The effect is almost like a solid surface. Caution on the ladder racks you pair them with though as the rack may prevent the tonneau from gaining maximum tension wich will cause more pooling than desired. I paired the with the recommended TracRac for the sliding adjustable rails. They do fit however the bulky base rail of the TracRac is too close to the sides of the tonneau and prevents my fingers from getting in there to pull the tonneau tight on the velcro sides. It's doable but very time consuming and not ideal if you open and close the tonneau frequently. I would propose that Access make some design tweaks to resolve this and better complement the TracRac base rails since it is one of the few racks that have a high load capacity. Other than that the tonneau cover is the best quality I have used for a roll up. Still have the same one on my 03 Dakota since 2008.
Nice fit ,easy to install
This cover is everything I expected and then some. It was easy to install and adjust. It's a solid cover with built in support bars that keeps the cover tight. it keeps my contents dry yet rolls up when I need the entire bed and the best part is I can still see out the back window (unlike some of the tri-folds). Highly recommended.
Thoroughly impressed with this cover after 1 year. Keeps bed dry, performs great going down the road too. The light and grab bar are a great bonus. Looks great still, no fading. Get compliments on it all the time since you don’t ever see them on OBS step-side trucks. Highly recommend etrailer for this product.
The cover went on fairly easily, despite the instructions being a little unclear. I definitely like the LED light bar.
Am very happy with this year old tonneau cover from etrailer.it is so versatile and with gas prices as they are will get better mpg closing tha bed off,by 3-4 mpg I've done the math,before and after.was getting 17mpg now 20mpg.but love it,I maintained it once a month.also was looking everywhere for a tonneau cover for a stepside,and etrailer hooked me up,and etrailer will hook you up to peole.
Easy to install solid item. We are experiencing issues w one end cap on the latch bar falling off occasionally
My Access Limited Edition soft roll-up tonneau cover arrived safely and on time to my freight forwarder in Miami. The packaging looks excellent and well-protected. I haven’t opened it yet, but I’m confident it will fit perfectly on my 1998 Toyota Tacoma.
Thanks to etrailer for the smooth process and reliable shipping — great experience so far!
