    I have a 2017 Tacoma TRD OR DCSB

    If I order a softopper, will it use the rail system on the inside of my bed? Do the clamps block anything or get in the way?

    No, it does not. It clamps to the top of the truck bed.

    I just installed one on my 2015 Access cab and the clamps I received use the rails.
