Speaker 1: Today, we'll be replacing the hinge seal for Extang Encore Tonneau covers. Part number EX-32620464. Is your Extang Tonneau cover leaking from the hinges Don't replace your tonneau cover. Replace the seals. These are an exact replacement for the seals on your Extang Encore Tonneau cover. Here you can see our old ones.
They're dry rotted, and they're beginning to leak.In order to replace the seals, we'll need to open our first panel, and we'll be taking off this whole end cap here. We can do that with a Phillips head screwdriver. We'll take the screw out here, and there. Once I've got them loosened up, they should just come right on out. We'll need to take out the plate, as well.
Now the whole cap just pops right on off.Here you can see our seals. Now we can slide the whole panel off. It's a good idea to get an extra set of hands. With the panel disconnected, it's going to make it that much easier to remove our seal. To install the new one, we'll need to make sure that we've got the channel side facing up here.
It's actually going to slide on to the channel here. You'll need to start underneath the rubber seal, and just push it on. Just like that.You want to do it slow. That way, it stays on track the whole way. Once we get all the way down to the other end, we'll need to trim the excess.
I'm going to mark it like that, and pull it out slightly. Then cut the rest off. Slip it back in place, just like that. To replace our second one, we're going to pull out the hinge panel. This one, since we can easily see it, we can pull it out from here. No reason to take it off. If it helps, we can use some needlenose pliers.Once you got a hold of it, we can easily pull it out. Then we can slide our new one into place, in the same way we did the other. Now we can slide our hinge panel back in place. Now with an extra set of hands, we'll go ahead and replace the front panel. Then we could replace our end cap, and our screws. Get one started, and then we'll start the next one. That's going to complete your replacement of the hinge seal for Extang Encore Tonneau covers. Part number EX-32620464.

Replace a worn or damaged hinge seal on your Extang Encore truck bed tonneau cover with this equivalent partExcellent seal work like a champ high recommended better if you leave it in the sun before installation lol is better
At first I had trouble installing these strips. But with the assistance of a trim tool and windex they went on quit and have lasted.
I think I got two sets of them and one of them is working and one of them was leaking right away. I would appreciate if you could send me a new one.
No doubt that this seal was the right one and this is the only option when buying a replacement seal that fits good, but the packaging of this product was terrible. It was bent about six times to fit into a bubble mailer, and if you have ever installed a seal by sliding it on, any bend or malformation will cause a giant headache. After an hour of battling this demon, I was able to get it on but in the process may have done more harm than good. Needless to say I have no other option when buying replacement parts, so I’ll have to live with it. Reluctantly. I’m not sure if I’ll be doing any more business with this company if they lack common sense to not ruin an already expensive product when packaging.

Oh I am sorry that it came this way. I will let our Customer Service team and shipping department know.
Hinge seals replaced, which was easy to do. Service provided by Bryan W was first class, thanks Bryan
I received product. Packaging could have been better. Kinked on two spots, causing gasket to pop in and out. Was able to get it in. Hopefully sun tames it.
We have had excellent parts and service from etrailer for years. No more leaks in Extang Tonneau cover hinges. hanks folks
My cover began leaking after about a year. I bought these replacement seals hoping it would fix the problem. It worked for a couple weeks and then began leaking again. A buddy of mine bought a competing brand and he hs no leaks even after 3 years.
Great product, but not quite as easy to install as I was lead to believe (You Tube video). The process of removing the old gaskets was very easy but I guess due to the "newness" of the rubber on the new gaskets they did not slide onto the rail very easily.
fast service,good price,great communica tion

great would not notice difference from an original
Great product, easily fixes parts that wear out from sun and rain. etrailer, is quick and fair, good company.
good as new. installation wasn't quite as easy as the video but went well. Customer service was excellent in helping me select the correct product and return the wrong one I had ordered
Seals were stuffed in a box & kinked. Difficult to get a waterproof seal with a kinked rubber seal!
Great company to do business with. Thank you!
Quick shipping, excellent product, easy installation. Would highly recommend this company.
Great fit and easy install. Thanks.
Great replacement for original seals that were dry rotting.
Pefect product. 100% satisfied. Thanks for speedy service!
Ordered sever parts for my cover. One showed up damaged from the FedEx driver and they were very helpful and quick to send out a replacement.
This is the 2nd time I order from etrailer I am extremely pleased with the product.
Exactly what I needed for my Extang Encore cover
The product shipped immediately and was delivered in a timely manner. There was even a video attached explaining how to install the item. My husband and grandson made the repair quickly and saved a big repair bill.
Mike B was an excellent representative. He straightened out an order I had made wrong. Great Service!
Worked perfectly, but it was a bit hard to install with it being shipped in a circle or should I say a wadded up mess. Had to put it in the sun to warm up and straighten out.
Tire showed up sooner than I expected and was exactly what I wanted.
