    I'm pretty sure you can buy those little things at lowes/ home depot, possibly wal-mart... Just make sure you use a backing plate and it should be fine.

    This is what came in the front of my '12. Not sure how much you'd use it or how much it'd actually hold, but you could do just as good on the hardware aisle and a backer plate as mentioned above :thumbsup:

    Cover King Seat Covers, WeatherTech Liners, PopNLock, storage bin locks, N-Fab Step bars, and G4 Elite Tonneau cover.
    Unless they have a backing plate on them I'd wouldn't tie much down with those.

    I agree, when I first read about them adding tie downs by the headboard I was expecting to see the d-ring style ones like by the tailgate. I figure I'll pick up a pair of them and mount them with the bed bolts up front and pull these little jokers off the sides so they are out of the way.
