    That looks like the same kit I am installing tomorrow. Did you put yours under the factory cloth? Any tips or gotchas that you want to share?

    Took my truck in for a foreign object in rear tire(actually looks like a damn hex key), hole is too big to be plugged, so I'm currently waiting for a new pair of tires to be installed. My wallet is not happy.

    Sweet! I have to get some of those. My vision is for crap and pulling fuses on the Taco is just plain frustrating.
    Thanks!

    EDIT - How do you find these in the US? No one seems to sell them outside the UK

    Search "tell-tale auto fuse" on Amazon. Mine came shipped free from a U.K. Distributor.

    Added a hard tri fold bed cover.

    Only thing I don't like about it, I took a chunk out of the top of my thumb forcing the side rail adapter in and there is a huge gap between the gate and the top, but I'll heal and I'm sure one of you has an idea for the gap

    Switched out the Hardware on the Mobtown tailgate skin with the original skin placed over it. Used Stainless 1/4-20 x 1" Sidewalk Screws and 1/4 x 1" washers. Also received my extra wheel for the spare tire that I'll be incorporating into the tire Rotation.

    Rotated tires, washed rims/slick mist and wired brushed all the crap off between rims and rotors/drums. Painted drums. Gave the U joints a drink, cleaned throttle body and MAF.
    For only 40k miles and running mid to priemium fuel. That throttle body' was pretty nasty
