Difficulty rating:
On a scale of 1-10, with 1 being a trained monkey can do it and 10 being PROFESSIONAL ONLY. I rate this a 3 due to the proper alignment of the visors. This took me all of about 10 minutes to install. *NOTE I have installed these before.
Tools needed:
1: Rubbing alcohol
2: Clean LINT FREE rag or towel
3: A nice day with little or no wind -or- garage.
4: Box knife or other cutting utensil.
5: Tweezers (to help with the removal of the tape backing)
PRE INSTALL TIPS:
- Only do ONE ( 1 ) side at a time.
- Take your time.
- Test fit is HIGHLY recommended to insure proper positioning.
- DO NOT remove the protective film on the visors until the LAST STEP. This will help keep them scratch free during installation.
STEP 1: OPEN THE BOX.

- Using a box cutter or other cutting utensil cut around the visors. BE CAREFUL not to scratch the visors.
- When removing the plastic that holds the visors in place.
- Take the instructions and throw them away. You have this DIY.

STEP 2: PREP THE WINDOW TRIM.
- Clean each window trim using the included alcohol prep pads, there are 4 or them, one for each window.
- If there is still residue use the rubbing alcohol and towel to finish the prep.

STEP 3: INSTALL VISORS
- Peel back 2” of tape liner from each end of the visor.

- Make sure that the tape liner ends are accessible.
- Align the front visor on the outside of the door frame.

- Attach to the door frame.
- Once you are happy with the alignment remove the remaining tape liner by pulling SLOWLY on the free ends working your way towards the center of the visor.
- Apply pressure along the flange to ensure proper adhesion. FIRM PRESSURE!!
- REPEAT FOR OTHER 3 WINDOWS.
STEP 4: REMOVE PROTECTIVE FILM.
- Carefully start pulling the film off of the visors one at a time.
- Check all the edges making sure you get it all.

That is it. Step back and see what a difference these visors make to the overall look of your vehicle.

Let them know that Andrew (The_Butcher) sent you.
Andrew, I have those on my B as well and do you notice any clicking when you roll up your window? LOL it's mainly when I'm balling down the freeway and roll them up but... ya know. Anyways, I do love them because they are so clean looking. Good choice my friend, good choice indeed.

Rex- Thank you!! 
XD40- it's window tint. the "TRD" is a color changing tint that is in between the eyebrow tint and the windshield.
LT- Thank you and, yeah, yours was the FIRST I saw these on and went WOW!!! I should have got those instead of the JDM ones..
I'm good now though. ;) I haven't been over 45mph as of putting them on. plus it was raining today so my windows were up. I'll take a test drive soon when it's not raining and let you know.
ASH- thank you sweetie!!! hopin' to come up and see you guys/gals soon. ;)

no clicks.. I notice the window shakes a bit due to the motor when rolling the window up or down. So the window taps against the visor a bit.
