    Slide toppers with stock gutters

    Have a 2020 Reflection 311bhs and want add slide toppers. Wondering if the stock gutters over the slides can be used for the topper to mount in or if you have to use the mount the topper comes with?

    I installed toppers (with a helper) on my 2019 303. I was able to use the stock gutters for the topper to mount in. Only drawback I have using the gutter is the topper does not have enough slope to drain water off without having a little belly in the material after a rain. I don't really want to put anything between the slide roof and the topper to hold it up. Afraid if I forget to remove it before running the slide in will just cause another problem. Depending on where you mount the topper on the slide out might change the slope to work well with your stock gutter. When I get back home this spring, I will install the supplied mount a couple inches above the stock gutter to provide more slope. I will install the supplied mount a few inches shorter than the factory gutter on both ends. By doing this the rain water will still spill off the gutter spouts and not run in a stream down the wall.
