Not a bad idea... if you had some sort of a bed cover I wouldn't bother with the plastic trim. Looks better without!

I would rather have a toolbox with a bottle jack or a floor jack.

My cover doesn't look like that. It's a T shape and has two cup spots. I also don't wanna drill into my bed.

I agree about the factory jack being too small. I am tempted to put a small piece of 4x4 or 6x6 wood in my bed just in case...

That's 'cause you've got an extended cab... my cover looks like your too. The cover in those pics are from a standard cab.
