Claim:
A tonneau system for a pickup bed, said tonneau system comprising: a side rail connectable with a sidewall of the pickup bed; a header system having a header member and a channel extending at least partially through said header member; and a retainer system operably coupled between said side rail and said header system, said retainer system having a header retaining member slidably disposed within said channel of said header, said header retaining member being positionable into a header engaging position coupling said header system to said side rail and positionable into a header disengaging position decoupling said header system from said side rail, said retainer system further having a header lock being selectively coupled within at least a portion of said channel of said header system, said header lock being biased into a locked position whereby said header lock prevents said header retaining member to move from said header engaging position to said header disengaging position, said header lock being positionable into an unlocked position whereby said header lock is depressed to a position at least partially within said channel thereby permitting said header retaining member to slide within said channel from said header engaging position to said header disengaging position.
