- If you have an over the rail plastic bed liner, you require to make some minor modifications to your bed liner in order for a tonneau cover to work in a proper fashion. You will need to trim over the rail portion of your bedliner to make sure that the tonneau cover’s clamping brackets can mount flush against the sills, the inner rails, of your bed.

Since plastic liners are one piece, all you have to do is slide it out of your truck bed, and clamp straight edge with line where you intend to cut the liner. This should be at or below rails. Then use a fine-toothed saw or razor knife to follow along the straight-edge. You can sand down any rough edges later with some sand paper or a file. Some plastic bed liners can restrict canister. In such a case, which is very rare, all you have to do is trim liner’s front edge in order for your canister to get installed appropriately.
