  I repaired my BaKflip MX4 hinge. I found a broken Tonneau on Facebook . A guy sold it for $40. I was able to remove the hinge on that. One of the hinge is also tripped but I still have 3 hinges left and I used the hinge closest to the cab. It took me 2 minutes to remove the hinge. It was not attached with any glue. It simply slides out. Undoing the seal on the side is the hardest part and it just slides back in. I don’t understand the liability excuse. There is no reason why they cannot replace the hinge. Now it’s perfect again. I was able to replace the latch as well using the part on the broken one. I got lucky!!!!
