    I know there are many types of covers, canopies & bed shells out there that use the track system OR even have to remove the rear track (back wall) system all together. For those of you with a bed rail system on the back wall, all I can say is that I will look into it and try to view some Tacos with them on so I can get an idea of how I can best use the parts that have been made.

    I'm certainly interested.

    If you have a paypal account (which you do if you've used it on Ebay), just sign into it and go to the "Send Money" menu (tab along the top of the page).

    The OP will provide an email address at some point if he's going to accept PayPal payments, so you'd put that email in as the recipient.

    You put in the amount you're going to send.

    Then choose the "personal" menu (in the box below the amount) and select "Gift". This will make sure that PayPal doesn't take a bite of the money before it gets to the recipient.

    That's all there is to it.

    Here is a pic of my old roll-up cover. The only way to make the bed rail bar work is if the brackets were turned around and reversed with the bed rail bar actually inside the bed against the wall versus above the bed and against the back windows. The idea is you'd have lights still available for the bed but it wouldn't be above any cargo. The "L" brackets that I have can very well be used on the sides with a light attached to it too. I'll be taking a pic of that soon.

    No. you'd sign into http://www.paypal.com with your email address and password (it's the same password you use when you pay with paypal on eBay). There's a tab on the site to send money.

    when do you think these will be available for purchase? could i pay you (if i purchase it) to make extensions (to make it taller) so i can use the whole bar backwards as you explained, i plan on putting two antennas and a light or two back there... i plan on mounting it like normal, but the top bar reversed, above the bed... idk if that sounds right

    :notsure: Not sure what you mean.
    I get that you want it taller but not sure how you want it installed. When I get ready for the group buy, I will be posting pictures of the individual parts I have to assemble it. Then I hopefully will plan on posting pictures of them assembled and the various ways one can do it. All the parts will come to you unassembled. Additional parts can be ordered should you have the need to try other options (I guess make it taller). Shoot me a PM and explain it one more time if you don't mind. haha. I think I can do it but unsure as my little icon indicated.

    Bump for some pretty legit bed rail bars. I saw these in person today and I can tell you they're super sturdy and won't go anywhere. :thumbsup:
