Mk1 Caddy equivalent size for tonneau/canapy
« on: August 16, 2009, 05:29:15 pm »
Someone may have already figured this out...
    Is the bed and rails and tailgate (the box) damn near the size of some other pickup?
eg...
#Toyota Tacoma Reg/Extd Cab (6' bed), 04-08
#Toyota Tacoma/SR5 (6' bed), 89-04
# Ford Ranger (6' bed), '82-'08
# Mazda B-Series (6' bed), '94-'06
# Chevy S-10/GMC Sonoma (6' bed), '94-'04
# Chevy Colorado/GMC Canyon (6' bed), '04-'08

I'd like to get a soft top canapy But http://www.bestop.com/index.php?a=30&r=1 they don't list the Volkswagen.   ???

best regards,
   david

You're going to have to get a custom cut one. They're unique in size and configuration.
