    Blacked out emblems, Weathertech liners, LED interior, tag, and 3rd brake light, reverse light mod, rear TSB, rear diff. breather, added black factory running boards, OR tow hook, and rhino lined UWS low profile box.
    Keep an eye out on craigslist. Also, Amazon at one point had the UWS tbs-63-a-lp on sale for $200 w/ free shipping. They do not currently, but it is worth keeping an eye on. I ended up finding that exact box bed lined for $75 on Craigslist. Mounted it with 4 J bolts using 2 on each side. They hook into the holes on the bottom of the bedrail track perfectly. If I need to take it out it's 4 quick bolts that you can only access from inside the box, so it's secure.

    I second Craigslist,

    I kick myself for not jumping on a Toyota OEM large box for our tacomas for 300 a few months back.

    Argh!!!

    But the Slim design UWS in black is at a local place for 300 plus tax, It aint cheap but it's nice and not as flimsy as others.

    There isn't much room. There's about 3 1/2" between the end of the box lid and the cab, and there's about 1/2" between the bottom and the cab. This is on the Lowe's Kobalt box pushed back all the way to the back rail.

    FWIW -

    I've seen these exact mounts at Tractor Supply stores. I can't locate it in their online catalog, but they were in the toolbox section in the stores. I believe they are "Dee Zee" tool box mounts. Amazon also carries them:

    (My first post... I've been a lurker since before I bought my truck last month. This site has been a tremendous resource... thanks to all who contribute here.)
