    Hey y’all,
    I have bed rack question, so I like the (Billiebar) because I can still use my soft tri-fold
    tyger tonneau cover. But (Billiebar) is a little bit too expensive for me. So I was wondering if there was something out there that’s less expensive that I can still use with my soft tri-fold tyger tonneau cover? Or even maybe a DIY. Any videos pictures or links would be very helpful. Here is a picture of my soft tri-fold tyger tonneau cover. Sorry the truck is dirty lol haven’t had a chance to clean it yet.

    I was in the same boat. I purchased a set of CBI Overland Bed Bars but I had the same Tiger T1 Soft Tonneau Cover as you. I found a thread recently on the Tundra forums that they did a DIY modification to the tonneau cover to fit the overland bed bars. I haven't done it yet, but I plan on it unless I go with a camper shell or something.

    Here's the link to that DIY thread on the Tundra forums: https://www.tundras.com/threads/cbi...onneau-cover-product-review-and-how-to.89405/

    The CBI Overland Bed Bars are on the cheaper end of bed racks but it's probably because they are just bars. Here's a pic of mine installed:

    KB Voodoo/Max Modular has some bed bars/bed racks that you can get with adaptors to fit over a tonneau cover. Some people aren't big fans of the guy/products but I've had several positive experiences.

    Our PRO-X bars are a little more economical than billie (and generally better): https://www.kbvoodoo.com/all-prox-crossbars/prox-tacoma-crossbars-2016-and-up

    Question on your Maxtrax mounting.... do they stick up past the bars much? I have the same CBI Overland bars with an iKamper and am about to order some Maxtrax, but have been trying to work out placement options. I have multiple options, but I really prefer the look you have to keep other areas open. I imagine you had to space the bars specifically to accommodate the Trax mounting hardware.
