Core Trax install anyone?

Just picked up 2 sets of these in black and was wondering if anyone else installed these and where they put them. I have ideas on where I'm going to put them but wanna see what everyone else did.

I don't have them but I'd like to see your install when your done. Seems like a good useful product for those of us who transport our fun toys in our trucks. What size and color did you get?

They would be great if they fit in between the ridges of the bedliner, maybe you could cut the liner and put it in there flush.

Have you investigated aircraft tiedowns?
I decided on a set of four of these...each ring supports up to 2000lbs:



It looks like the CoreTrax load locks are made of plastic and can support no more than 500lbs. the VersaTie locks are cheaper and can support more weight...looks like they could work with your track (btw, the CoreTrax tracks are cheaper than the VersaTie tracks so a mix and match would be the cheapest option!)

Here's the site with a ton of tiedown options from anchor plates, to tracks, etc:

Takes some navigating to find it...

Maximum 510-760 lbs. per load lock

Well sheet.... Never woulda guessed. I got the Hi-Lift slide-n-lock and those are rated a 500lbs per lock, but they are much thicker looking than those. Hope they work well for ya.
