    I have a 2006 Doublecab. When I first got the truck, rear passengers of the taller persuasion were getting tagged in the side of the head by the factory headliner grab-handles when things got rough. It wasn't long before I decided to remove them...

    Now I'm looking for an alternative. I recently saw these and wondered if any other members were using them?

    Headrest mount seems like a good option. Any other ideas appreciated. ;)

    Also use the 1/2" grommets> not the smaller ones. I made a backseat cover to avoid dog hair on my seats, originally bought the smaller ones and realized the post for the headrest would not go through the smaller grommets. Had to go back and get the larger ones.

    Funny the markup going on there... Looks like the Kayak models are a little shorter overall, but that might not be a bad thing.
    Thanks.
