"Love this awning for areas with very intense sun, or in the rain."
"Great awning, but a bit expensive (it's ARB so you kind of expect it)."
"Unlike the picture, mine did not come with stakes or guy ropes for tie downs. Planning to take this out to the beach and on the trails this coming summer."
"I installed my 2500 awning on my new 2016 2500 express van by mounting it to 3 of my VanTech roof rack gutter mounts."
"Love the awning very nice, but I will say this the ARB awning or any ARB awning for that matter needs to have a better mounting bracket !!"
"used it at the ski hill, in the rain, in the wind, at the bluegrass festival... solid."
"It's ARB design awning much better than the Chinese copies I've seen and the one I owned previously."

"Bought these to replace an existing enclosed cargo trailer door holder (also plastic) that broke when the wind caught the door."

The second coat did not use as much as the first coat, which was really lucky. Well I waited and waited and by dark it had not set up to where I could get in to apply the second coat. We are in the high desert and our humidity is about 18% right now. After applying the second coat I soaked the concrete floor of my garage and closed it up to raise the humidity up so it would cure faster."
"Kit comes with the 1 gallon can of bed liner, two foam roller applicators, roller and handle, 2" paintbrush, and scouring pad to prep the bed surfaces. Make sure you use a quality masking tape for this stuff, it will save you a lot of time in the long run. Once you have masked off and applied the bed liner, take a rag with some acetone and wipe down the tape seam so that you don't have to run a razor down your swam later on, this makes pulling the tape up, exponentially easier!"
"This product worked great."
"This product is as it says."
"The front of horse trailer had a black surface that started to peel and looked terrible as it got rusted underneath."
"cool stuff easy to use... i even used to coat some small pads on my boat and trailer for skid resistance werks good for my use THANKS CHOPPER DAVES MOTO."
"I would highly recommend this product to others but would suggest having a second person to stir continuously and replenish small amounts into tray."

"I finally got to use the tent this weekend and I absolutely love it!"

Find Best Price at Amazon"If you do not have the materials (wood, screws, clamps, drill, glue (if you want)), this will easily run you more than these ramps cost."
"Back at home I got myself a cold beverage, then I laid out one 33" piece, then laid a 27" piece on top of it and butted the near ends flush. I then laid a 21" piece on top of the 27" piece and again butted the near ends flush and screwed them together, being careful to drive the screws so they didn't hit the screws underneath. I then laid the 2.5 inch piece on the 21" piece and butted the near ends flush. If you want to go all out and spend four dollars, you could add another level (mine are 5.25" high) and/or lengthen the bottom piece by six inches, and then move the 27" piece back six inches from being flush, which would make a more stable base should you ever accidentally drive too far forward on them."
"For all of the uninformed weekend mechanics and DIYers that have been scared and had close calls here are 2 "pro tips" straight from basic high school auto shop."
"So I'm super concerned how long they are going to last especially when the surface I put them on is not entirely flat. Also these ramps could have been made a couple inches higher so you can work under the car with ease."
"The ramp has a little rubber grip that when pushed down works as a grip on the ground, but once the tire moved passed it, the ramp slid away."
"Attempted to change oil in Subaru Outback today."
"I appreciate the advice by a reviewer to avoid these ramps and to build solid ramps out of wood."
"This company is going to kill some one eventually."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"You'll need to pop out two rectangular plastic pieces and figure out how to accommodate the factory camera wiring as well as the P&L actuator wire. Be sure to run the wire behind the exhaust shroud to prevent the wire from becoming damaged from exhaust heat. To bring the wire into the cab, you'll find a rubber plug in the floor of the cab roughly underneath the front passenger seat. Remove the electrical tape surrounding the existing wiring going into the cab, then run your P&L wire into the cab along with the factory wire. The wire surfaces under the passenger seat, and from there it's easy to run the wire into the door sill wire channel into the passenger kick panel. Unplug the black wiring plug and expose the lower green and red wire; those are your passenger power lock actuator wires."
"Installed this (part number PL8535) yesterday on my 2017 TRD Sport Tacoma, took about 90 minutes start to finish - wired to the passenger side door harness.. zip tied every 8-10" or so."
"I don't mind running and cutting wires - but the wire clamps were a bit challenging and having to poke a hole through a rubber brushing in the firewall is a bit, uhm... "I don't like doing that"."
"Great addition to the truck when you have a tonneau cover and want the tailgate to lock with the rest of the vehicle."
"Only problem I ran into was it was unlocking my tailgate when it should have been locking it. It does provide instructions in the box but if you can find your vehicle year and model on youtube it saves a lot of time trying to find the right wires you have to connect the tailgate wires to."
"Tip- after installation of the P&L MAKE A “dry run” test prior to zip tieing the wire to your chassis and make sure that when you lock, the gate locks and when you unlock, the gate unlocks."

"These side panels fit into our Chevy Silverado like a glove."
"The problem is that the cut outs for the stake pockets are off by 1/2" in the length and 1/4" in the width so I had to cut them with a dremel and razor knife to make the Bull Ring 4001 cargo hooks fit. The real kicker is when I was finished I realized the Bushwacker logo was on upside down on both sides..."
"The only issue I had was the stake holes don't line up with the cutouts. I added a tonneau cover to my truck and it highlights how far off they are."

(4x8' actual cargo area) We tarped the load, then stretched this over the load, and used ratchet straps to secure everything. This didn't quite make it to the end (or front) of the trailer, so we'd hook it to the front ratchet strap to secure it, along with bungee cords to the trailer frame."
"Needed to secure some loose cargo in my Toyota Tundra and thought for roughly $10.00 I would give this net a try."
"Then I realized how easily the hooks could be removed and found out that the net is designed to be used this way. Leave the hooks off, then when you need it.. just throw the net over the load and clip on the hooks where you need them."
"Next time I piled a lot of round rolled up carpet and padding in the back nice and high, tailgate down. all being rolled it would be easy for the pieces to roll out of the back when turning the vehicle, and the foam padding is very light and could get caught in wind."
"It seems that the little bit of extra pressure is plenty to keep things from sliding unless I really hit the brakes hard. There are plenty of hooks along the sides, and they are removable if you need, so you can attach this net at exactly as many points as you want to. The design does lend itself to tangling fairly easily, so you'll occasionally find yourself trying to get the net all sorted out."
"We purchased this cargo net to secure over the top of wood so we could transport it in the pickup without a log flying off like a missile into the vehicles following us."
