sorry guys.. been uber busy here are pics to help ya out in the install.. 2 ways to do it.. 1 takes longer which you have to take out the rear seats and side panels... after I did this.. I realized ya dont have too haha...

Alright so start off by taking out spare tire, the storage boxes in the rear.
* On each box there are 2 snap plugs you have to pop out so it comes out.





After the spare tire, and storage.The section behind rear seat with the safety hooks for child restrant. Where the 2 hooks are pops them out with a screwdriver or knife and will reveal a 10mm bolt on each side, once you take these the piece pops out.





Next you wanna take out the plastic piece where the hatch latch is. Simply pop them out. Then next you will have a 10mm bolt on each side of the rear panels. They will simply pop out also with around 5 plastic snaps perside.




After you will expose the seatbelt bolt located on the cpillar, all you have to do is undo bolt I believe its a 14mm bolt on both sides. Then i took off both bolts on the cpillar bar to make it fit. Screw in each side of the cpillar bar til it lines up with the seatbelt holes. Once they are lined up, put seatbelt back and tighten down. Then allt hat is left is to back back everything in reverse order and cut the panels however you want or leave them out. I use da circular saw to cut holes for the bars to come through.

When you take the C-pillar covers off there is a square shapped mold right about where the bar will go through, I cut my hole w/a oversized hole saw (to allow clearace and a trim ring) in the front bottom corner of it, so if you are looking @ it fromthe back the front corner of the square as you hold it @ the correct angle. Hope this helps...

yeah. if you want.

the bottom part of the seat pops out with 2 pegs you could say one on each side in the center of the seat. once the bottom part of the seat is out there should be like 3 bolts in front and 4 on the back portion of the seat.. undo those should be 14mm.. you also have to undo the seatbelt thats attached to the seat on the passenger side.. once the back seats are out. there is a lil plug you have to turn sideways so it pops out. can be a pain in the a$$ .. so be patient. once its out on each side, the side panel will pop right out with like 6 plastic snaps thats it if ya need pics let me know.. i have them all.
