    Not sure what you’re looking at they are the same and only one way to install. Both are under the cover and use brackets to lower/relocate. Installed both they are identical minus what I outlined.

    If there is anything I don’t like about the Extang Xceed, (or the Backflip for that matter) is that it is not easy to remove. I miss my old Extang Signature, as it could be removed easily in literally seconds.

    I was looking at this:
    https://bakindustries.com/images/imgs/Installation_Guides/BAKFLIP_318A0062 _015-15Tacoma_SUPPLEMENTAL REV.021916.pdf

    Those instructions aren't helpful at all, I did find this video that shows what you said, both the MX4 and the Exceed covers install the OEM rails back on, thanks.
