I think the third gen beds are interchangeable. Hope you find one.

Thumbs up Hope this helps

The taillights and wiring should be the same as the tla's changed in '07. I recommend calling a few places that do upfitting, such as utility boxes or flat beds. Those guys pick up a bed really cheap. My buddy got offered a $500 credit if they got to keep his bed. Needless to say it went home with him. He has sold that since. Box assembly part #'s are the same also, so the 06 will work on your '03. Even if the box turns out to be an '07, the pockets for the lights will be the same shape but you will have to modify the wiring.

Don,

I'm heading that way from IL in early Dec. I'll see if I can locate you the proper bed and door for your truck. I'll have room coming out. What color are you needing?

Looks like the majority of them I can get are new take off beds that are white. Is repaint a consideration if the price is right. I can't find any blue ones with a decent price tag. I have several white DRW beds for a 06 though. $1500 being the average price.

I have a silver one that I will let go cheap. It has no tailgate and needs some fixing on the left corner. I think there is some pics in my profile.
