The Softopper for the 2004-2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 (5.8 ft bed) is the original retractable soft camper shell, built to replace a heavy fiberglass or metal camper shell with cab-high protection a flat tonneau cover cannot match. When a bigger load calls for it, the top folds forward toward the cab or lifts off entirely in seconds, so one person can open up the full bed, then pop it back up for weather-resistant, all-season coverage. A corrosion-resistant anodized aluminum frame carries a waterproof 2-ply PVC-coated sailcloth (vinyl) canopy that shrugs off sun, rain, snow, and mildew, with clear vinyl windows front and rear and roll-up sides for airflow and easy reach into the bed. It clamps onto your truck's bed rails with no-drill C-clamps in about 40 minutes, with no permanent modifications, and non-adhesive weather stripping runs beneath the Softopper bed rails to seal along both sides of the box. Pair it with a lock box when you are hauling valuables, and keep the open-bed versatility. Made in North America and priced at $1,069.99 in black, tan, or grey, it also fits the 2007 Silverado and Sierra 1500 Classic, and adds no significant change to gas mileage and no wind noise at highway speed. Need a different year or bed length? Softopper builds fitted models across the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra lineup, part of the full range of Softopper truck soft tops, so you can match your exact bed on the fitment selector on this page.
