It took me about a day to fit em using the clips & I only used the ones that go along the sides. (smaller ones)

I messed about for ages getting one clip on at each end of the sill, then when i was happy they were straight i drew a line from one to the other.
Then it was just a case of fixing the other clips along the line.

They didnt turn out to bad.

ive jsut done this 2 my corsa, was quite easy (ish),

i used no more nails and a lot of self tapping screws lol, nah only about 4/side.

the hardest thing is too get um straight, i had too make my own brackets too, dont worry bout drilling into the car any mistakes will be hidden anyway
