There's probably some microscopic print somewhere that reads "measurements
are approximate", so my guess is you're out of luck on that route.

Personally, I'd try trimming the bed mat. If that doesn't give you enough
room, assuming your tonneau uses rails, you could try running some foam
weather stripping between the tonneau rail and the bed to lift the tonneau
up a bit. I had to do this on my '95 for the tail gate (with diamond
plate cap) to close properly.
