Lot's of mixed reviews on the fitment. I put these smoothback with no stake holes on my 2000 8ft bed and they fit perfectly. They seem to be great quality. Check out the photos. Give them a try!

  • A couple helpful hints for installation
Style: BedRail Caps Color: SmoothBack w/ Stake Holes Size: 6.5' Bed
I really like how the rail caps cover up all the scratches on my 10 year old truck. It's a quality product and I'm glad I spent the extra few dollars. Here are a couple helpful hints for installation. 1. After all the prep outlined in the instructions, set the caps on the truck for about an hour during a sunny day. 2. While the caps are just placed temporarily, run some masking tape down the back of the rail (just above the tail light) and onto the truck. 3. Mark a line on the masking tape vertically. 4. Cut the tape at the seam between the truck and cap. Now you have an index mark. 5. Take the box that the rails came in and put it across the bed over the front stake holes. 6. Take all the backing tape off one rail and place the front of the rail on the box. This will prop it up, allowing you to get the back aligned without worrying about the front sticking before it is time. 7. Carefully position the back of the rail in place using the index marks. 8. Support the cap while removing the box and then guide it gently into place. I think it works best to make sure the inner lip is lined up because it doesn't have tape. Good luck. This is one of those things that should be best done first on your friend's truck because once you've done it one time you know what you're doing. ... show more

  • Good quality and appearance. Very challenging installation.
Style: Tailgate Cap Color: DiamondBack Size: All Beds
The quality and appearance are great. It takes care to get the cap on straight and centered, but it looks sharp if you measure it out, take your time, and do it well. I'm satisfied with this product, and it looks really sharp. You cannot tell by looking it wasn't professionally installed. However, I can't give it five stars. Here's why: First, it doesn't come down quite far enough to cover the holes in the tailgate for the OEM cap easily. If you get this cap on just right and press down incredibly hard, it will cover them--but just barely. There is ZERO allowance for error. I thought my cap was on perfectly, but I noticed too late that if viewed from below (like, put your head on the bumper) one of the holes was not quite sealed. Some black RTV silicone gasket-maker (mask the paint first) and a bit of patience fixed the problem. The repair is absolutely invisible. But, really? The tiniest amount of extra depth--even an eighth of an inch--would have avoided that problem entirely. I shouldn't have to make up for oversights in design. Secondly, the cap is affixed to the tailgate with 3M double-faced tape. The instructions say to start pulling the protective backing down to where it can be reached, then press the cap on while slowly pulling the rest of the backing off. Problem: tape has seams. The cap manufacturer made a trivial attempt to address that, but it does not work. I mean, it was a total failure. It was crazy hard to restart the peeling of the protective backing after crossing the tape seam. Think of two people working, MAXIMUM muscular effort to open up room to work, a high intensity light, and picking at the backing with a pair of tweezers. Yes, we got it restarted. Yes, the cap is attached firmly and I don't anticipate any problems with it. BUT that was massively frustrating. In summary, if the cap came down the outside of the tailgate just a little further, and avoiding seams in the attaching tape would take this product from good to excellent, and transform the very challenging installation to almost routine. ... show more

  • Fantastic look
Style: BedRail Caps Color: SmoothBack w/o Stake Holes Size: 6.5' Bed
2001 GMC Bushwacker knock it out of the park. This looks better than spray in liner. Perfect fit and design. Looks like OEM. Don’t get the cap with the stake holes. This has three continuous strips of 3M tape would hate to try and get this cap off. I waited 18 years to put this on my truck. WOW does it look great. My truck is still like new and low miles. What a great addition to the look. Be careful putting it on. Follow instructions to the tee. Do it in warm weather. Set the cap in the sun for just a few minutes to warm it up. Set it in place and then put small pieces of blue tape in about seven places to mark the final location of the cap “ before” you pull any tape. That way you will know for sure it is in the absolute correct position when you are pulling the tape. Good luck. God bless. ... show more

  • Did not fit, $57 dollars to return, and I was hit with $13 dollar restocking fee.
Style: BedRail Caps Color: DiamondBack w/ Stake Holes Size: 8' Bed
I bought the bed rail caps for 2004 Silverado 2500HD long box. I don't write reviews unless products are amazing, or really bad. The bed rail caps out of the box seemed like a good product, until I went to line up the stake pocket holes. The first one seemed to line up, but the second one covered up half the hole, and the third one was completely off. Other older reviews mentioned this, but I decided to take a chance, and I lost. After trying to contact the sellers support line with no answer, I immediately boxed the up bedrails in their original packaging, and sent them back the next day. Shipping cost me $57 because of the size of the box, and I purchased it from a 3rd party through Amazon. Shipping was half the original purchase price, but I didn't even request reimbursement for shipping even though the product was defective, because I knew I was taking a chance with a third party. Then, I finally received an email from Amazon that I had been refunded my money minus a RESTOCKING FEE! Amazon did right be me by refunding my fee, but I feel others should be aware my cap wasn't even close to fitting, it's expensive to ship back, I couldn't get ahold of their customer service, and I was charged a restocking fee on a product that was defective for my truck. Ordered another brand using Prime, and I couldn't be happier. ... show more

  • the stake holes did not line up.

These are supposed to fit a 2004 gmc . They fit the bed rail lengthwise except that the stake holes did not line up.
