Question:
I have an old Glasstite bed cap on my Toyota Tacoma. I need new locking t-handles, but I don’t know what will work. I can send picks of what’s presently on it.

Thanks for reaching out, Tracey!
I recommend checking out the Bauer Products T-Handle Lock for Small Truck Caps # BA97VR to replace what's currently on your Glasstite bed cap. This is a pretty universal solution that has a 1-3/8" shaft so if that matches what you have then this will work out.
If your T-Handle has a different diameter please let me know and I'll be happy to see if we have anything comparable!

Hey Tracey, did the Bauer T-handle lock fit your Glasstite bed cap the way you needed? Once you confirmed the shaft size, I’m curious how the replacement worked out. Your update could make it easier for others with older truck caps.
