Is anyone running this tonneau cover WITH THE FACTORY TRAIL RAILS? I'm trying to find out if it will mount with the factory trail rails (aka; cargo management system)..?

TIA...

This doesn’t exactly answer your question, but I have the MX4 with the Mooar factory rails and it mounts without issue. I did a quick search on the differences of between the G2 and MX4, but didn’t see much except the MX4 might be sturdier. I had the MX4 on my Tundra and loved it which is why I bought it for my Glad. If you would like pics, let me know.

Well, it's been a mess of an ordeal because I ordered the MX4, but UPS freaking lost it. And we need it before going to Utah, so I don't have time to get another MX4, but I could get the G2. I agree with you, I would think they would mount similarly. I'm going to call BAK tomorrow and ask them directly.

Thanks for your help!

Wow, I’m sorry to hear that. That’s the kind of luck I have. After taking a closer look, I’m 99% sure it will install with the rails. Everything looks the same. It looks like the only differences are the amount of distributed weight it can handle and gloss vs matte finish. You don’t use the clamps that it shows in the install video. You have to trim the plastic bed rail covers to access two screws on each side. It’s super easy, but screwing it in was a PITA. Also, I had to buy better weather stripping at Home Depot to help with leaking water. I didn’t have this issue with my Tundra. Good luck.
