The Rick's are knockoffs. They don't have the bumps like the JDM ones do. The fit is also ALOT tighter and i've seen some people actually breaking the clips to get them installed.

Get the JDM ones from hardtopguy.com. They fit perfectly.

I know what i'm talking about. They used to sell the real JDM ones. The ones they sell now are "JDM style" A couple of my buddies bought some thinking they were JDM Honda ones.
