    I bought some of the moulding to replace my oem roof rack a few months ago, and im finally getting to installing it. Ive removed the racks and hardware, and to the point where I can put the moulding on but do I need to get some double sided tape on the moulding or some other kind of adhesive. Thanks guys

    the 3M doubled sided tape will work and also cover up the holes that are left behind unless you like the swamp cooler affect in your truck when it rains. :)

    What are you using or doing with the 2 clips that you had to cut the sides off when doing the Racks? did you buy new or is that what the 2 way tape is for? Cheers

    When I took my moulding off, at the front of the roof there are 2 plastic clips that held the moulding down, the roof rack instructions had me clip the sides off of the 2 clips so the rack could mount over them?

    I'm removing mine because a tree limb feel on one side of it a while back and smashed it so I'm just gonna put the strips on it. Ive only got the passenger side of the roof rack, ill probably throw it up on her for sale and hope for the best as soon as i take some pictures of it
