You may be able to use the Extang CargoCleats Tie Downs # EX1932 but I'm not sure they'll work with your tonneau cover. If your tonneau are attached at the side rails, they probably will not.
Another option, that isn't really ideal, is to drill into the truck and install some D-rings like # SR10-C.
