Did you take off the railings to do the trimming?

Looks great by the way!

Thanks Joe! I digging the black/blue theme too. Just throwing on a set of rear facing ambers like Jason's truck. I found them to be VERY helpful when I'm behind a truck with them during night, dusty or snow situations, so I wanted to extend that favor to other members. Heck, a few times at snoball, that was the only thing I could see ahead of me!!

Thanks King. No, I did not remove the rails to trim. I just used a good straight edge. The rails are actually raised slightly and do not sit flush with the bed rails so if you take your time, you will not scratch paint. I first installed the bar on top of the retrax/rail covers, drilled my holes and then used a marker to outline the shape of the light bar feet on the rail covers. Then I removed the bar and cut out the bed rails, then installed the bar back into the recesses and reinstalled Retrax on top. A fair amount of time, but the results are worth it.

According to Jimmy, this is the first one with a Retrax and light bar combo, so we were both nervous/insterested in the outcome. Based on the light bar set-up and what I encountered, I believe the WSI bar would work well with any form of retractable bed cover or bak-flip.
