Love the bed extender, AMP research makes a quality product. I installed this on a 2021 Tacoma and the fit was perfect. Assembly and installation was super easy. I do not use the templates, the easiest way is to get it assembled to the proper width and set it in place with the mounting brackets on the extender making sure it is level. Then use masking tape to mark where the bracket needs to be. Then remove the brackets from the extender and hold them in place against your tape lines. Mark one hole and drill it, I used a 1/8 drill bit, its slightly smaller than 9/64 and you get a nice tight screw. Then mount the bracket with the one screw, you can drill the other two holes with the bracket installed avoiding a hole not being lined up. Anyway, it's super easy. Make sure you take note of where your tailgate is when its closed, also make sure the extender seats on the tailgate when its down before you drill holes. On the tacoma my bracket is just about even with the inside edge of the panel the bracket mounts to.
