Can you elaborate on “4 clamps” ? Do you also mean the quick fist clamps for a shovel, axe gear bags on the underside of the cover? It’s listed as a toolbar on the website? I want to mount a shovel, my freedom rope and maybe an axe underneath for sure but it looks like you need the HD model to have two of the tool bars?
Like I said in my review of it. You can adjust how tight/snug My tailgatei sits against the tailgate. Mine will open when the lid is closed but it will put excessive wear on your weather stripping.
I personally don't see any other advantages.
But the weather stripping is something easily replaced if worn out correct? I do my own work (with in reason) and I’m not scared of replacing weather stripping to be able to have the auto tail gate work correctly. I have to open and close it at all military check points in Baja along with coming back across the border.

I know now I have to decide between the two. I am leaning towards the SE over the switchback.
No. The cover is clamped to the bed with 4 claps (2 on each side of the center portion). My gear mounting solution is something separate I did using their Molle racks which only work with the HD cover. If your going to replicate what I did, you'll need to riv nut the panels in your install. Contrary to what is listed on their site, the rubber well nuts provided are NOT rated for the weight. Ask me how I know.
