Anyone have a Tepui 2 Insulator? I have questions.

I got one from Amazon warehouse and it arrived in...weird condition. It had no instructions, a piece of paper that seemed to come from a hotel, no tags on it whatsoever and it seems a little too small like it got shrunk in a dryer. I want to confirm the no tags and the fit in a Smittybilt tent.
 
Assuming you mean for the Tepui Ayer 2? What size/tent is your Smittybilt?

I have the insulator for my Kukenam 3 tent, its fairly simple to install. The plastic clips onto the poles and you tuck the bottom underneath the mattress

Yep, the Tepui Ayer 2. I have the smaller Smittybuilt (2783) which I was under the impression was the same size as the Ayer 2 (I thought they were just rebrands of the same tent). I'm able to get all the clips on but getting the corners under the mattress...it just seems too small for it. I'm going to futz around with it this weekend while I'm camping but if it is shrunk I'm going to see about exchanging it.

maybe take some photos for us to compare too
 
Well, I went out camping last weekend trying to figure it out and I think it's just too small. I'm returning it and I'm going to build my own with reflective foam core insulation. I figure it'll be about $100 cheaper and 100% more effective
