After installing my hard trifold cover I had a little water that came in during heavy rain. I installed the rails and then put on the cover.

I realize these trifolds are not 100% waterproof but didn’t like the amount of water that trickled in especially with the rubber seals on the perimeter. Upon inspecting the seams, I realized one side was somehow 1/16 exposed as the rail was a little high in a section. I crawled into the bed (with cover on) and loosened the bolts and allowed the cover to seat. And then retightened the bolts. The seal is much tighter. This seems very obvious, I know - just a tip if anyone else has any water coming in. Instructions don’t really specify this but it helped a lot.
