Has anyone found a reasonably priced solution to covering 1" gaps between tailgate and ramboxes?
 
I am assuming you mean the gaps between the tailgate and the rest of the bed when the tailgate is up?

I went to home depot and grabbed a roll of really thick weather stripping, something like this:

Frost King 1-1/4 in. x 7/16 in. x 10 ft. Black High-Density Rubber Foam Weatherstrip Tape

I then used a flashlight ( if you have a tonneau cover too) to see where light was coming out and putting the weatherstripping there to fill the gaps. Seems to be working pretty good a year in.

I used the weather stripping that came with my tonneau cover. I'm thinking about doing something different, but it works pretty well...

There is some foam weatherstripping that fits perfect in that gap.

Thanks Smon. That definitely looks like it would work better than my ghetto setup. A link would have been more helpful than a pic though :D

@EugeneYYZ a quick search on Amazon turned up the following, which is what I believe @Smon showed:

Appreciate the link Jofu. Placed an order this morning.
 
Ha, I had that photo already that I sent to a buddy. A link would have been to easy for you guys.
