    I've been searching for videos or pictures of the Go Rhino XRS bars mounted on a Tacoma but have not found them. I was wondering if anyone has them installed on their truck that could share some pictures. I'm looking to buy a set to install them on a Retrax bed cover but after talking to one of their reps, I was told that the bars are 70 inches wide. Not sure if that is going to be too wide.

    Here is a link of the bed bars I'm talking about for reference:

    Since I want to keep a low profile (installing a roof top tent), I haven't found many options of racks/bars to fit in those T-Slots.

    Hopefully someone has pictures of it or any other options are welcomed.

    While I don't have this on my bed, I do have it on my trailer. The mounts sit on Yakima HD racks. This and the Go Rhino cross bars use the same size bolts (I can't recall the size at the moment) which just slide down the groove. I could've gone with any manufacturer for cross bars, but I like the added height to get underneath the RTT. And you can cut the bars to length. I cut about 1' off.

    I just put Yakima HD Bars on my Retraxpro XR, and had to go to the large (68") bars, as the medium (60") bars were just a couple inches too short to land on the towers/adapters in the right spot. I don't think I'm going to, but I could cut them shorter if I wanted... I think you can do the same with the XRS bars, as @bruhman mentioned (sick trailer, btw!). The 68" bars don't stick out past the fenders.

    I think I'll just get the 70" bars then and worst case scenario I can cut them. Thanks for the feedback. Nice trailer @bruhman! I thought about getting something like you but I don't think that's for me.
