    Some solid bed bars that I can live with, slightly more expensive than the original incarnation, but still well under $100.

    Bars with tent installed.

    Bar bolted in. 1/2 carriage bolt fits superstrut slot. Vinyl end cap was order off Amazon.

    Angle bracket from local hardware store.IMG_20200309_183642050.jpg


    Had to shave a bit off of two sides so 1/2 carriage bolt would fit bed rail slots.IMG_20200309_181622538.jpg



    Bracket mounted waiting for superstrut cross bar.

    10 foot superstrut (electrical conduit aisle at home Depot) cut in half for 2 bed bars.IMG_20200309_191031437.jpg

    Mods? Yes.
    What do you mean you didn't spend several grand on a mod?

    Glad I could help, bet a coat of black paint would almost make it look professional.
