Also considering all the issues I've read about the clock spring, I would find a way to at least cover that up along with the dash. Something like a condom... Dashboard Condom - Patent Pending 61/844,496

I just looked at that. I like it. I made a shortcut on my iPhone.

i have the bedrug, and pulled the plugs from underneath. it dries out after rain pretty well. i havent seen any rust/mildew problems and i run topless/doorless year round (for last 2 years), parked outside. BUT, I'm in northern california so it doesn't rain all that much. thumbs up for the trek armor seat covers.

to cover the electronics I use backpack rain covers - one for the steering wheel and one for the radio console. i bought some that have velcro straps/hooks and just hook them on to the air vents etc. keeps the worst of the rain off. i also drilled a couple small holes in the cup holders so they don't fill up.

Ive no long-lasting problems after rain, but on occasion after getting wet : the horn has a mind of its own (fun driving around town with the horn alarm intermittently blarring), and the radio wont flip channels.

This happened to me the first time scared the crap out of me when it went off. I found for the radio if you take it off the dash and unplug then replug th wireharnesses in the back it will work again.
