    It seems like a difficult product to screw up. I’d be inclined to give them a shot.

    Just wondering if you have gotten around to installing these yet, and what your thoughts are on the system?

    I really want to install a molle system in the bed of my 2021 SR5 for better organization. My only worry is compatibility issues with the OEM tonneau cover.

    I haven't yet. It's supposed to warm up next week, so I'll get them on then.
    They are very solid though. Well built

    I was looking at those too. But, I can’t tell from the pics if they’d interfere with my diamondback

    I went ahead and ordered the cab side panel, hopefully it will drop in without any interference issues from the tonneau cover. If all goes well, I’ll order the driver and passenger side panels.

    Once you install them, would you mind posting some close up pics of the mounting points?

    These look pretty good and the price isn’t bad at all. I was thinking about doing something like this, but price was holding me up. I may end up giving these a shot.

    I have a tonneau as well and it shouldn't cause any issues. Just bolts behind the bed rail with the same hardware.

    Yeah I’m mainly concerned with the tailgate end, because the db has this little plate that extends out of the rail, toward the tailgate as part of the locking mechanism.

    may have to mod the Molle panel a bit, like cut off that rear top corner, but then again it may clear it without an issue

    I got mine installed today without any issues. I am however still waiting on the bed side panels to be delivered.

    I love CaliRaised products but $760 for the Molle panels seems a bit much. All I want to do is attach my rotopax against the bed and maybe a shovel. My Diamondback HD shouldn't interfere with anything. Was looking at the Rough Country $250 out the door with free shipping. Any drawbacks to going with RC over CR?

    Excellent product at a great price point. Installed yesterday, took maybe 45 minutes just being slow about it. It's a tight fit that doesn't clear the top rail until the bed bolts are tightened down on the lower brackets then it pops right into position. Leave the top brackets hand tight until in place then make fine adjustment to line up on the bolt holes and tighten it all down.

    Installation trick if you have the OEM bed mat: cut some notches on the corners closest to the cab so the front edge of the mat can slide under the Molle panel flush to the front. See pics below.
