can be done with or without tub liner(just hole saw some small holes in plastic tubliner ( nice and neat)

The point of a tubliner is that no **** gets underneath. Why would you drill bloody big arse holes in it ??

Hey guys, cheers heaps for the awesome info and pics. Still weighing up the options.

The Ute has no tubliner at the moment and won't.

Not putting in the hooks ect to tie down anything specific, just want something that is practical for all uses.

Would love the ally rollbar at the front and back of the tray but really dont want to spend cash on a banger work ute. Might get a mate to do something up that isn't quite as pretty as the bought ones.

The ute came with a "maloo rear sail" something or rather that is directly behind the window. It extends the roof a little and has a brake light. It will be in the way so it has to go! Anyone know what this is actually called?

i put some tie down points in those panels that screw out on the sides of the tray, but i also replaced the screws that the panels have in them to ones more sturdy. you dont have to but i was putting roadbikes in there and didnt want the panels to come loose haha.
