What is Purpose of Weatherstripping that Comes with etrailer Tonneau Cover e63DR
Updated 10/22/2025 | Published 04/02/2025 >
Question:
In looking at the reviews, questions and issues, there are 2 types of weatherstripping rolls that are included loose with the kit. Can you provide a location that these weatherstrips should be applied. This seems to be a common question with no supplied answer... Thank You! Truck 2023 Ford F-150 5.5 bed

Hey Mike, if you fastforward to around the 6 minute mark of the install video I attached for the etrailer tonneau cover part # e63DR that you referenced you can see that there is weatherstripping that installs on the front of the tonneau between it and the front of the truck bed.

Hey Mike, how did things go with the weatherstripping on your F-150 after checking that part of the install video? Knowing where you ended up placing it could help others setting up the same tonneau cover.
