Can somone explain where/how these mount? I don't have any holes on the lower windshield area. A pic would be great. And please don't tell me that they go under the fender corner. That's what it looks like and I ain't about to pull the fenders off again.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but yes they do go under your fenders. I tried and tried to get them on without removing the fenders but had no luck. Removed the fenders and attached them, would have saved me a ton of work if I would have known to attach them before putting the fenders on but I guess you live and learn.

They actually "screw" in just below the "A" pillar and above the upper door hinge. Should be a small hole there for a sheet metal screw. In order to wiggle them in, the first have to be mounted into the trim channel. I loosened my fenders enough to pull them up and back for clearance. Not easy but better than pulling the fenders.

I remember those holes. I'll have to look again tonight. I've now got this vision in my head of using small screws with a hex head and a small wrench so I can get on them from the side at the hinge area. We'll see.
