factory bed molle panels

Howdy,

I just picked up my 2025 Tacoma Trailhunter (6ft bed Canadian version) and have removed the stock ARB sport rack and replaced it with the Toyota OEM hard ti-fold tonneau cover. The Toyota OEM cover is similar to the Bakflip MX4 tonneau I had on my 2018 Tacoma TRDSport before and had brackets that dropped the bedrails roughly an inch or so for it to be mounted.

My question is, would the Toyota OEM accessory molle panels still fit with the bedrails dropped? I've attached pics straight from the Toyota.ca site for reference. TIA!

 

Just to be clear, you are saying your bed rails are now one inch lower on the bed sides?

Here is what they look like on a five foot bed. It should be similar. As you can see, there is not much room vertically either way:

Take a look at Snickers post above....also there is a video on this one in post 8. Might help visualize.

thanks for the links....those show the panels much better than on the toyota website. And yes, the OEM Toyota tri-fold drops the bedrails ~1inch lower than factory location.

Based on those pics in the links it doesn't look like the factory molle panels are going to work (bummer). Will have to find another solution. Thanks y'all

 

I just installed the Toyota molle panels in my 25 Pro. If you had to drop the rails an inch, I don’t think they will work. They attach into the original rail holes and the bottom of the panels are pretty much touching the top of the wheel tubs and back floor.

 

Shoots yeah that's what i figured. Which tri-fold tonneau do u have just out of curiosity>

 

I have a Lomax trifold. Dealer installed.
