they come with instructions, they are self explanatory. If you still can't figure it out, bring it back to the dealership to have them installed because you shouldn't be handling tools

SIMPLE DIY

you gotta take off the wheels. pull back the wheel wells. open the hood and remove the bolts that connect to the spring/shock. you then move the spring/shock so the top of it is sticking out of the wheel well. once you'e done that, get double sided tape and rip 3 strips and place a small strip on your left palm, and another one on your chair and one on your bottom lip. sit in a chair, hold your hands together, and close your mouth. that should hold you till your package arrives and you can read the instructions that come in the package. easy

^ Sheesh I wouldn't want a DIY for an air freshener.


This is what I got from a search:

Anyway....they are very easy to put on. The instructions say to remove the wheels. Not required, I just turned the fronts in the opposite direction of one working on.. The holes you need to make are only thru plastic, no metal.
I took a sharp pick and just punched mine thru, no drill used.
Hold them in the proper position, mark holes, punch thru plastic, install clips in place, peel off tape strips, position, install screws and your done.
Hope this helps.

Airfreshner EASY DIY:


Using a Microfiber towel, spray a few spritz of your favorite dash cleaner. first wipe down the dash and make sure it's clea and dry. next, remove air freshner out of packaging and place double sided tape on the bottom off the plastic cover, and unwrap the squash scented gel. place gel into plastic cover and close. then, close all windows to make sure everthing is air tight in the vehicle. pick up microfiber towel again and stuff it in your mouth. pull down your pants and fart till the dash begins to moisten up. apply airfreshner in buttcrack for maximum use. please replace squash gel every 2 mos.

Dealer will charge you at least $100 I am sure. Find a friend that is handy and get him to install them. It is easy to do, I have installed splash guards on a eclipse and 350z and both took about 40 min.

Damn you really are a n00b. Would hate to see you try and install a POP charger!

Goto Wal-Mart and buy a cheap tool kit to get you started. All you need is a phillips screw driver, rachet set and a drill bit (or you can try the puncture plastic method as suggested)

I did not even remove my wheels, turned them and did the install. I ommited 1 screw on each side though. Will wait until I remove my wheels to install the screw.
