I watched a few videos, and I read the instructions, I don't get where I'm going wrong here..
The front of the cover (towards the cab) fits perfectly fine, everything lines up.

At the back of the cover (near the tailgate) where the ends snap in place it seems like the rails are not far enough apart.
I took it apart and put it back together twice, pushing them as far out as possible, and this still happens.
I have to use two people to bend them outwards to make it snap in.

I also checked and it looks like the rails are parallel, they don't seem to be going inwards near the back.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

What brand/model have you got there? I have a tri-fold but if you say it's a Truxedo, Tyger, Gator etc someone with the same might be able to help.

Good point, I've updated the OP.

Good point, I've updated the OP.

I think there's a distinct possibility it's defective, have you reached out to the seller? I would guess the wrong model/size, but you said in the OP that it fits except for this piece at the tailgate end.

I hate to start with that but honestly I've bought both brand name and generic stuff on Amazon that was defective, and had issues with generics a lot more often.

That's what it seems like to me. I reached out to the amazon seller as well.
I'll keep you all posted and most likely return this.
