Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I measure for an accordion boot?
Use a flexible measuring tape to trace the perimeter of the pass-through opening between your cab and camper.
- Can I install a accordion boot seal foot in cold weather?
Yes, but it's best to warm the accordion boot seal foot slightly beforehand. Cold temperatures may make the rubber less flexible and harder to manipulate during installation.
- I am wondering if the compression boot can be trimmed to fit around the third brake light?
You cannot cut the boot to fit around the 3rd brake light. Here are a couple of things you may want to do.
- Remove the brake light and cover the opening with a thin plate.
- Instead of installing the boot to the shell, install the boot into the truck window opening. Do this only if you remove the rear window.
