Default rollpan mounting???

im sure this is a stupid question but how did you guys mount your roll pans on? when i had mine on my blue truck i just drilled holes into the part where the little roll pan lip sits onto the bed and pop riveted it on, which i must say was a very shitty way to do it, it looked really stupid. so i figure that cant be the way all you guys are doing it?

on my s-10 I just used the screws and caps that came with the kit and put the black caps the over the screw heads under the tailgate. they fell off after a few hundred miles though! haha

same process to hold the bottom tabs to the side of the bed.

yea like i didnt even get any screws or caps or anything w/mine, w/e guess ill just do it that way, just wasnt sure if there was a better way. wat sux is the silverado bedside tabs are like 1/8" wide so there hard to get anythign into.

Mine mounted the same way, stainless screws in the bottom of the bed, behind the tailgate. Then it had a bracket for each side where you attached the bedsides to the pan.

Those side brackets may just be for the stepside beds.
