Difficulty level: 6 out of 10.

Look at as much picture as you can and buy new good quality drill bit. An angle drill would help as well. It would also help A LOT if you get another person to help you. Just someone to hold and line up the bars while you drill.

Oh yeah, if you are the kind of person that don't like to drill into your otherwise perfectly good car, this one isn't for you to do. You are drilling 16 holes into the floor and 2 large ones into the soft top tray.

I did it on my own in about half a day.

Be sure to double-check all your drill holes and make them 1 mm larger than the bolts, so you have a little play afterwards with all the bars..

Be prepared for massive pain in your back after the intall
