They are a b¡tch and a half to install.

At least the Rally Armor ones are, and I didn't even bother installing the rear ones.

It took me and my friend about 3 hours to do...

mainly because we had lunch in the middle...and we accidently drilled a millimeter to low, so the clips on our first ones were off so we had to drill a bigger hole...

overall it was easy... u just need to get the first one out of the way..

good luck
