New features exclusive to the Elite tray include a lower profile, ‘bolt-on’ side profile design, and colour-coding to match each vehicle. The headboard has an adjusted height to provide clearance for popular ‘Rhino-Rack’ or ARB roof racks, with allowances for solar panels and other accessories or modifications.

Integrated Anderson plug mounts have been added, as have tie-down points in the headboard for securing large items. A 40-litre poly water tank is included for standard dual-cab vehicles, and a 58-litre poly water tank for extended Toyota LandCruiser, extra-cab and single-cab vehicles.

The sequential LED tail-lights are exclusive to Norweld, and the tray includes unique bolt-on panels for ease of replacement, constant torque hinges on toolboxes and enhanced 1200mm trundle drawer design with lock functionality.
