Will Bakflip MX4 Tonneau Cover When Fold Up Block Third Brake Light and Rear Camera
Updated 09/29/2025 | Published 05/01/2025
Question:
Buying a 2025 GMC Sierra 1500 Duramax with 5’8 bed. Looking at hard folding tonneau covers. Interested in Bakflip Mx4 now. Will it fit truck, will it interfere with 3rd brake light and camera when folded up? How much does the cover weigh? Are there any other brands I should look at? Thank you

Hey Phillip, the Bak BAKFlip MX4 Hard Tonneau Cover # BAK52FR that fits your 2025 GMC Sierra 1500 5.5 foot bed weighs 71 lbs and when it's folded up would not block the rear view camera or the third brake light. I attached a picture that shows what it will look like folded up on your truck as well.
