Abstract
A tonneau cover assembly is provided including a front rail, a rear rail, and two side rails. The rear rail and two side rails include a pair of opposed lips defining a channel therein. The channel slidably receives a plurality of snap receptacles for cooperating with mating snaps of a tonneau cover having a snap-type mechanism. The channel also receives a hook-type retention member and retains it therein so that a tonneau cover having a hook-type fastening mechanism can be secured thereto. Accordingly, a single rail network can be used with either a snap-type tonneau cover fastening mechanism or a hook-type tonneau cover fastening mechanism.
