Replacement Cover for Extang Classic Platinum Tonneau Cover 2000 GMC Sonoma 6 Foot Bed

Question

Question:

I recently ordered and received a replacement Extang part # Ex1560 for my 2000 GMC Sonoma 6. I find that this is the right size but I will to either have to return this unit or purchase a Cab Rail with snaps. My old cover has the cab slide on tarp cover. I am guessing that my old cover and frame are considered Platinum Classic. I would appreciate your advice for the best resolution.

I do have the correct replacement tonneau cover for you but I spoke to my contact at Extang any they informed me that the Replacement Tarp for Extang BlackMax Soft Tonneau Cover part # EX1560 will not work with your Extang Platinum Classic Tonneau Cover part # EX7560 even with the header seal as the rails are different and will not work with one another.

The correct replacement tarp you will need is the Replacement Cover for Extang Classic Platinum Tonneau Cover part # EX6560.
