best bed liner and divider.

1st time Taco owner.

Just got a 17 and want to get a bed mat. I see options from many providers, thick rubber, thicker rubber, carpet, and Weathertec fitted. Any suggestions on what works best?

Also need a bed cargo divider so I can keep my golf clubs in the bed without them rolling all around. Any reason to pay the full tilt retail for the Toyo OEM divider?

thanks

 

Factory is the best stuff and you can get it cheaper than your local dealer from @Titus_Will_Toyota or @Unchained 5150 's duke of deals thread.

 

Buy OEM stuff on eBay.

 

He can get the bed mat in my Duke of Deals Round 2 thread. And he can ask the guy if he can also get a deal on the Cargo Divider.

 

Check out KB Voodoo's products. He's always fabbing up cool stuff.

 

Also don't rule out your local dealer. There've been a couple things where it was cheaper after tax from the dealer than from ebay/online once shipping was added. Not always, but worth checking.

@Bkuscsik Check out the Harbor Freight Cargo Bar. Grab one of the easily found 20% off coupons and you've got a deal.

 

Is the OEM divider compatible with the OEM tonneau cover?

 

Yes. Post #5 in link below.

Thanks!

 

The OEM bed mat works great and fits great.

 

I was in the same position as you and went with the complete bedrug, and an Amp research bedXtender.

The upside of the bedXtender is that you can flip it into your truck to use as a divider but you can also flip it out onto your tailgate to extend your bed a bit. (always good to have in a clutch)

The Rug is cool because this model provides 100% coverage all the way up the sides and even has cut outs for all the storage compartments. They make a version for just the bottom as well.

 

Which one is the correct part number for the one that fits the 2016? I'm finding two different ones when I search.

How is the BedRug holding up? I bought an OEM bed mat but hate that rubber smell. Looked at the BedRug at a local store yesterday, have to say I really like it. Have you had to take it out to hose crap off of it or does it vacuum easily? Also, the local store said it has cut outs for the cubbies on each side of the bed but not for the LED lights back there, their installation includes making cut outs for the lights and tie down hooks. Is that right?

 

So far so good, whenever I get it really dirty I just hose it off and let it dry out. It doesn't really hold water so it usually gets completely dry within a few hours. But if you want since it only installs with velcro its really easy to take out and put back in.

Local store is correct my truck did not have any bed lights but I had to cut little slits for the tie down hooks to go through. Really easy to do.

Totally worth it IMO.

 

I just picked up my oem bed mat for my longbed at my local Toyota dealer for $94 and some change. I called around to see what the prices were. Looked for a coupon online from their parts dept, went in and picked one up. They matched the lowest price I found and gave me an even better deal. All it takes is just asking sometimes. The parts guy was happy to do and took a little more off because he said he wanted to beat the other guy!

 

Didn't even consider harbor freight. Thanks for the heads up. That's on my next agenda.

 

I gotta chime in here on this one. I found what they call a stall mat at Tractor Supply for $40 and used a jigsaw to cut out the wheelwells . This is super heavy duty stuff. I have a short bed and ended up cutting off a foot of it. They are 4 x 6 x 3/4" thick. Covers most of the bed and wears like iron. Just hose it off and it looks like new again. I like the added weight in the winter too. Only negative is it is heavy and the new rubber smell takes a while to wear off. Oh and things won't slide easily if that's what you like.

 

On the stall mats:

Here is the latest add near me.

This is what I went with. 1 mat for a DCSB. Couple hours with a measuring tape, utility knife, and some gorilla tape to cut-seam-and fill the right rear corner with the pieces. Working out fine. Pretty as OEM, not really. Seriously though, truck . . . . bed . . . . who cares. It works.

 

@gpb, I stopped by my local harbor freight today and picked up that cargo bar after seeing this post. It's actually better than the ones I've been seeing at the camper shell shops around town. Took your tip and found the 20% off coupon and got it for about $19 after tax. I'm stoked!
