    I have TC bed stiffeners already in. Amazon has a great deal on bed rugs right now $361. Been wanting to get one for a while just don't want to have to cut it up to fit around the bed stiffeners. Anyone? Please post picks, tips, if and where you had to cut to make the rug fit. I really don't want to take the stiffeners off and cut holes and reinstall them just to get the rug in. Thanks

    If you don’t want to cut the bed rug to go around the stiffeners and you don’t want to remove and then reinstall the stiffeners what other options are there really?

    You have to make sacrifices. cut the holes in the bed rug! install the bed stiffeners and call it a day.

    Agreed. Plus the stiffeners will help keep the rug in place.

    Yep watched some you tube videos. Looks like I'll just have to trim around them. Doesn't look bad at all. Thanks

    I just cut the rug a bit to get it to lay flat. Worked great
