Don't think it can be done without drilling the side rails. So I just did it! For anyone else installing a fold a cover here is my advice from installing mine. When you temporarily put the side chanels on top of the side rails and lay the top on them they will lean in toward the center of the truck bed since they aren't screwed down yet and have a lot of weight on them from the top itself. Have someone push them in and make sure they sit level before you mark the spot with masking tape. I didn't do this and when I was done they were a little too far apart for my liking. I tried to adjust but there wasn't quite enough play so I ended up redrilling one of the holes. It's under the side channel and not visible but I know it's there! Before you drill you might also want to measure the gap between the two side channels to make sure it is just slightly bigger than the top. MEASURE TWICE DRILL ONCE rule! Wish I would have used it. Great top, I just find it hard to believe that they couldn't design it in a way that wouldn't require drilling into a 50k truck.
