I am glad you found what you were looking for. When I told the dealer my plans for the truck they said nothing about the inability to put a canopy on the bed. After calling them and talking with them it seems they had never heard that was an issue. Why would I think that this bed would be different than any other bed in the world. I would think that there should be a way for a canopy to be attached to the bed or they tell you that? I know that its an after market addition but its not a foreign one lots of people put canopies on.

So just bought a slightly used 2021 1500 AT4 w/ the carbon pro package. I always have a canopy on my truck. It was never disclosed to me and I never thought to ask about mounting a canopy to my bed. Because you can mount a canopy to every bed on the market. However the carbon beds are slanted and there is no flat surface to put the C clamps to secure the canopy. I have called a LEER/ snugtop installer and they called their reps and they have no "approved" fix for this. I have also called an ARE dealer who called their rep and they have no "approved" fix. Then I called SmartCap they sent me pictures of a customer that had cut holes for the clamps to fit through but stated this was the customers doing and not an approved method. I am now contacting dealerships to figure out what GMCs fix is. I can not imagine that they built the only bed in the world that you can not attach a canopy to. Does anyone have any insight into this issue or any approved fix?
