Will do. Hope to get to it this weekend. Working on daughter's Forester right now (oil pan gasket, A/C repair, headlight). Wen I get that done, back to the Baja. Dennis

Here's the first picture with the plastic cover removed. When removing the bed trim, be very careful. It is usually sun baked and can crack easily. Later I'll show pictures of the repairs I made. The bracket is held to the body by 4 small bolts (8 MM heads). The second picture shows pencils pointing to the slots where the "buttons" go. The third picture shows the Tinnerman nuts in position. I had to notch the bracket to properly position the nuts
