To install the BAKFlip G2 Hard Tonneau Cover # BAK26525 on your 2021 Nissan Titan 5-1/2 Foot Bed with Utili-Track System you'll need to follow the steps listed below:

1. Slide the front half of the clamp into the rail in the tapered slot. Position the clamp as close to the front of the rail as possible, it should be less than 12” from the front. Place the second clamp near the center of the rail. Position the rear clamp as close to the tailgate as possible.

2. Slide the back half of the clamp directly into the vehicle tracks. The clamp halves install with the grooves facing out. Align the clamp as shown with the large grooved end first. NOTE: If reusing the factory tie-downs be sure to install them intermittently with the tonneau clamp halves.

3. Place the rail onto the truck bed rail, match the two clamp halves and install the bolts and washers into each pair. NOTE: Some drop in liners may require trimming in the corners to fit the rail.

4. When tightening push down on the rails, as well as in towards the bed rail and forward toward the bulkhead. The rails have shims in place to fill the difference made by the angle of the bed rail cover. NOTE: over tightening
the clamps may warp the bed cap.

We do not have an installation video for a Nissan Titan unfortunately but we do have some review videos on a Ford Raptor and Chevy Silverado.
