5. Position the corner guard on your vehicle by placing it over the corner guard and line it up with the lower factory holes from the flares. You may need 2 people to hold this in place. Temporarily install the lower bolts, the small allen bolts (3.1). If this does not hold the guard in place and you do not have a second person to help, you can also use vice grips (3.2)

6. Remove interior carpet on the corner guard. Mark the upper holes with a marker (4.1) and either remove the guard or drill while in place (4.2). When drilling, be careful as there is electrical located on the driver side (4.3). For the lower bottom corner holes near the tail gate you will need to drill through the inner pocket wall also. Be careful as there is taillight wiring behind it. (5.3 on next page)
