If you use them, be sure to coat them very liberally with an anti-seize compound. They tend to freeze up in the holes with time and exposure to the elements. I had one that did that, and I couldn't get it loose. Couldn't even get it out with an EZ-out. So I just cut/filed it down flush with the bed and put the cleat back on.

if you get under the truck and look up you can see them sticking into the fender, you then can spray them with your choice of penetrating lube from below. Never seize is always a good idea.
