Added my slide topper caps

When I picked up my RW , the slide toppers were installed , but did not have the upper aluminum covers... Now they do !! Had to tap the holes (1/4-20) on the lower supports..
I am happy with the look, but need a better camera!

That looks great! I didn't even know they made them until you brought it up.

That looks great. I'm still on the fence about getting these myself.

That missing screw would sure do it!

Dan, the slide toppers would sure like you if you did it. UV is nasty to awnings.

These look fantastic! Where did you buy them? Cost? I take it you installed them? I'm a bit confused with the before and after pictures...the after picture appears the upper mounting bracket is sloped (to allow for better rain run-off). The before picture looks level on the upper mounting. Maybe different slides?

The slide toppers were installed at the dealership before picking it up... They never installed the tops to the covers , said most don't want them as they trap leaves and such inside the canister..
I have had toppers with the caps for many years and never had an issue , in fact I think they finish the look.. The actual toppers are from carefree of Colorado , and the covers are the SOKIII....
The first picture is of the entire side of the street side looking from rare to front... The second picture is of the front slide on slide....
