Frequently Asked Questions
- Can the crl ed5381rl be painted?
We only sell black boots, but EPDM rubber can be painted using an acrylic roof coating rated for EPDM. Avoid latex and petroleum-based paints.
- How long does an accordion boot last?
With proper installation and care, EPDM accordion boots can last for years under normal driving conditions.
- I have a Ford F150 with a LEER top. I an pretty sure the accordion seal is the correct option but the warning that the opening must be an exact match has me concerned. It looks like the truck opening is larger at the lower corners but until the window is removed, who knows? Am I on safe ground getting the accordion seal for this application?
The accordion boot only stretches one direction. There is a metal clip embedded in the rubber that allow you to attach the boot to the fiberglass/sheet metal, Therefore both window openings must be the same size. If the opening in the shell is smaller you can cut and trim the fiberglass to match the truck's window opening.
