I plan to add L-Track to my cargo bed (2022, XLT, LWB) from left to right near the back (probably just a few inches in from the plastic trim piece at the end). The purpose is to carry mountain bikes that attach to Fork mounts that attach to L-Track. I'd like to use the flanged L-Track which sits ~0.5" deep. I'd cut the vinyl/rubber floor mat making a ~1.5" channel that the flanged L-Track would sit in. I'm a bit nervous about cutting the mat as there's no going back. Some questions I'm hoping someone knows the answers too: 1. Has anyone done something like this before? 2. How thick is the mat (will I have the 0.5" I need for the L-Track to sit in?)? A bit deeper is fine as I can shim it, but less than 0.5" would be a problem. 3. What would be the best method to screw the L-Track down to the metal bed? 4. Does the mat cut cleanly with a utility knife?
