    I have the opportunity to buy a bed extender from a 2011, but I need it for the 2012.

    The part numbers are different for 08-11 and 2012 Tacomas. Does anyone know or have fit a 2011 on a 2012?

    Or do I need to buy a 2012 bed extender?

    Thanks!

    Even though the part numbers are different I am pretty sure they are the same since the only changes were to the front of the truck.

    So just to confirm COMAtose:

    You have a 2008-2011 bed extender and put it on your 2012? No issues? Did you have to mod it in any way?
    Thanks!

    No modifications. Toyota installed it late last year before the 2012 extender came out. As far as I know...the shape of the bed extender is the only thing that Toyota changed...

    Will a Tacoma bed extender from a 2005 Tacoma fit a 2012? Looking at one on Craigslist and it is from a 2005 but is in like new condition. Wondering if it will fit the 2012.

    Thanks

    I'm not sure. Is the part number the same as the ones I posted?
    I think the 05 is the same in the bed as the 11. 05-11 should be the same. Don't just take my opinion though.

    Thanks Sparkhill! I searched and didn't find that thread. Would have made like easy, but quick answers from others got me the deal. Looks like the older model is better anyway.

    Anyone seen these close up? I like how they fold up against the tailgate.

    Yeah. Its great if you have a tonneau cover that does not allow the other one to work/fit under it. I don't like the one you pictured because it doesn't flip over and let you use it to keep things at the front of the bed. But it does have the advantage of giving you space when you don't want it.

    I am looking for a bed extender for my 2012 Tacoma. Do I need to drill holes to mount this bed extender ?

    I just bought a 2005-2011 BE to replace the one on my 12. Everything fits perfect. Didn't even remove the dealer mounted brackets for the 2012 BE. Just assembled the 05-11 BE then slipped it into the existing brackets.

    Whoever scoops up my used 2012 BE is gonna get brand new brackets, mounting template, and assembly gear. Good deal!
