I bought an aftermarket under rail bedliner (from Montgomery Ward) for
$189 in 1989 when my truck was new. I thought over rail liners looked
dumb and the lightbar installed on the Shelby Dakotas would have to be
removed, so I went with an under rail bedliner and kept the lightbar.
It fit so well, that I never bothered to attach it with the mounting
hardware provided, consequently there hasn't been any binding or rubbing
to speak of and the liner stays in at the top end of the dragstrip (was 90
MPH, with new race motor should be 120+). The tail gate protector was to
be attached by drilling holes and using metal screws, so I just used a
bonding adhesive that we used to attach the panels to my Super Pro car
instead and have had no problems there either.
