Dawn - You have picked up on a 3 year old thread on this topic . . . and posted the question in a couple of different places at the same time. There is much more recent info/discussion on slide toppers. Some members of this forum have done their own installations. If you enter "slide toppers" into the search tool in the upper right corner, you will find these related discussions which will help to answer your question.

Depending on size $600 with install is about right. If possible check out other dealer installs. Our previous TT slide covers were almost flat and therefore puddled badly, the dealer tried to tighten them up and bent the rollers. Different dealer, larger, installed 3 slide covers on our Reflection 29RS have a good angle and haven't bellied.

After 6 RV's I've learned I can't do with out the slide toppers. Had the dealer install them on our 303RLS when it came, price by linear foot was below 2K.
Got too old to be climbing up on a ladder to clear the leafs and twigs before actuating slide.
On our 41 ft Heartland, had wide toppers and when it rained, the water would pool in the middle, made a loop (duplex wire) on a long one x one enough to
reach the a handle that sticks out on all of them and pull down and empty (stand to the side or get wet). Cool how the snow rolls off when you slide in, but
like mentioned above, watch for ice.

Our 2018 373FB-R Solitude was inbound to the dealer before we "picked it", they ordered without slide toppers. Made a deal with the dealer for a discounted price on 4 Carefree Slide Topers. Just finished installing everything except the cover rail that attaches to the coach body its self. The instructions (off the Carefree web site) were good enough to figure out. A 10 foot ladder would have been better than the 8 foot one I used! Do make sure that you get the rail attached higher that the main roller so that the rain & snow drain away from the coach body.
