No prob.... I also really love that diamond back cover. I saw that when shopping and wasn't sure I could not get a complete open bed with it. Looks like yours stays closed off in middle. Correct? I ended up going with a BAKFlip G2....

Yes...the center 6" bridge is clamped to the bed but the hatches can be removed in a minute or the entire assembly taken off about 10 minute...

Also can be controlled via Iphone app through bluetooth to strobe and/or dim:clap:
Can you share more info on how you wired up the Trigger? A relay for vehicle power would be good for this I think, but I'm curious what you did about this.

Sure...it's simple...three wire coming out of the unit...red, black, yellow...red goes to positive battery terminal, black goes to negative and yellow is optional...if you aren't afraid of random RF turning on your lights, then connect this to red for always powered...if you like to have the unit armed only when another circuit is on like in my case the marker lights, then connect the yellow to the hot lead of the marker lamp...for that info, please dig back through my project for the wiring process of the DIY Raptor lights:)

Thanks! I'm not going with the Trigger, it's just too rich for my blood and I don't need all the fancy tech you have! :crackup:

I just picked up a simple fused distribution box I'm going to wire in. I may have to do a bit of digging, but the marker lights would be a good one.
