i want to install linear actuators on my bed cover to open and close it but i am not quite sure how to select the right ones. i am also wondering where the best place to mount them is. i was thinking the best place to mount them would be as close to the rear of the bed as possible because the bedcover that i have is very light weight and want to make sure it pulls down tight at the rear. if anyone has any ideas thoughts or suggestions i would really appreciate the help.

Sorry, but don't really know much about them. This site has kits: https://www.thehoffmangroup.com/Autoloc/Products/Products_TONNOS.lasso, but I've never had to deal with anything like that so I don't know. I'm sure if someone here knew they'd chime in... right? ------------- I'm not a professional installer. But I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express.
