Ya that is another bill. Guys at work have them and I used it the first time i used the glue but the mixing tip that goes at the end of it waists a lot of product that you leave in the mixing tube. So I took 2 equal length screw drivers and pushed the glue out from the back, making sure the plungers are side by side to keep the ratio the same. And instead of using the mixing tips I squirted the product straight out of the tube and onto a mixing board and used a spreader to mix it like body filler. That eliminated the waist of using the mixing tube. Just another way to attack it.

Here are the 2 male ends that are attached to the physical tonneau its self. Just cut out not trimmed or clean, so they look rough.

Here are the 2 finished products. How they work on the left and separate on the right. I then glued the male ends to the tonneau, drilled counter sunk, and screwed them to the tonneau. Because this is a high stress point of the tonneau (hinge) I felt threaded screws would help hold it to the tonneau better then an aluminum rivit.
