WTF are those cuped things ?

Like the title says what are those cupped plastic things above the wheel wells? Mine keeps falling out. What the hell are they used for? I have had this truck for about 2 months now are mine broken? they dont seam to snap in .

thanks

 

Pics?

 

Picture would be helpful.

 

Those a the 7th and 8th cup holders. Pics would help!

 

I think he's talking about the cubbie hole things in the bed.

From what I have seen they are good for making people ask questions and a place to put bed lights.
but yeah they ain't supposed to fall out.

 

Are you referring to the bed? Just storage compartments, they shouldn't just fall out. Is this a new problem or have you had the problem since you got the truck (is there a previous owner)?

 

Fixed

 

u only have 18?? dealership took u for a ride man..

 

When I read "cupped things" I thought of boobs. Weird!

 

You dont have boobs in your wheel wells? Musnt have the same trim truck I got.

 

Yea, they must have run out of space to put them all.

 

lol. literally tho. their is 13 in my DC. just the one’s in side. oh but i can make more. and their are some out side.

 

In the front wheel wells? Bolt access?

 

Those cups snap into the side, if removed improperly the snaps... Snap haha! Anyway whoever removed them, for whatever reason, took them out incorrectly. I accidentally broke one snap off when I was putting in my rear diff breather mod.

 

light mount for bed light mod.

 

I've read the reason those are there was because Toyota needed some way to lift the beds onto the truck on the assembly line, and that's where the robot was designed to grab them. So they just filled in the space with some "storage" compartments. No sources on this though, I'm pretty sure I saw it on here.

 

No one still doesn't have pics of whatever the OP is taking about?

 

I put marine speakers in mine. So when I'm lounging in the back @ a meet or after riding or working on the truck I have something to listen to. I seriously do too. lol

 

What is so weird about that?

 

I keep a couple of bungee cords in mine, at least during Summer months...handy for securing coolers of fish and other stuff. Like someone said here, it sounds like someone forcibly removed yours and broke the "tabs" that snap into place.
