Looks great! I have mine but haven't installed them yet. Any tips for getting those factory bolts to loosen up? LOL I only have a shorter socket wrench and when I started taking things apart it just wasn't happening.

Thank yall. Yeah man it was pretty easy. I didn't have a longer socket wrench either I had to use a pipe wrench and just hammer down on it.

Those long factory bolts have a steel "washer" or something on the end of the them which prevents the bolt from falling out if they were to come loose. So as Htown mentioned, rachet them out as far as possible (until they stop moving down), put an adjustable/wrench above the bolt head, then hammer down on the wrench to force the bolt to come out the remaining amount. Takes a bit, but it will drop out eventually.

No need to hammer anything! I used a small pair of vise grips and a flat screw drive. Lock the vise grips just under the boss, use it for leverage and easily pry down. Repeat a few time and the bolt falls out. No effort at all. There’s electronics on the drivers side, I wouldn’t want to slip and hit that box with a hammer.

Adds some nice flair. Is that a fluorescent plasti-dip color?
