Installing the damn sidesteps

I can’t believe LR short sidedness when it comes to sidestep installation. It took me 3 hrs to install them on the truck since the side panels, and front and rear fender pieces had to be removed just to cut a piece of plastic to provide access to frame nutserts needed for installation.you will end up breaking 100% of clips while removing plastic pieces. The mind boggling part is that the area of the side panel that needs to be trimmed is already marked on the inside surface of the side panels. All LR had to do was to make these cutouts accessible from outside and the job would be reduced to 30 min as it would have taken on any wrangler

not to boast, but it is possible to do without actually removing those trim pieces... I installed mine without having to pull out a single clip. There was a lot of swearing and frustration however. If I was to do it again I probably would just pull everything and replace the clips.
