This post is for truck owners who have snap button tonneau covers
installed over their bed.  Changes in temperature and aging of the
material  make the fastening of the rear corner and tailgate buttons
difficult on some installations.  I have come up with a simple
solution to this problem.  Making the simple tool I designed, along
with a 6” quick grip clamp, this procedure is much easier.  I have
designed a Blog (web page) that covers the details a of the solution
and would be eager to hear your comment and opinions.

Or you could just buy the Top-Snapper:

I have one and it works great.  Also, don't forget to lubricate the
snaps.  Vaseline works well.
