Bed Liner Removal

[Arc Ranger]

I need to remove my bedliner to drill a couple of holes in it to install an accessory rail for the tonneau cover that I just purchased, but from what I have read online it seems as though the plugs that hold the bedliner in place cannot be removed without breaking them off. (See picture of plug attached). Does anyone know: A) Can they be removed without breaking them? or B) If they must be broken off, where can I buy extras?

I don't even know what part to look for to find an extra pair of plugs. Any help is much appreciated!

Yes, I needed to do the same when I installed my Truxedo Deuce! These plugs can be removed and re-used if you are careful! Use a flat object like a putty knife or even better a plastic rivet removal tool such as this available at Amazon, Advance Auto, etc..

If for some reason you can't re-use them, you can find round "Christmas Tree" fasteners that will fit the spot at any auto parts store.

Awesome, thanks for the info. I actually do have that rivet removal tool, I was just afraid to try it without asking here first.

Well now that it's answered, it's time to derail this thread and talk about dampers, stoves, graphene, or something equally important!

Install a damper on a stove and give it a good coat of Graphene ???
