The carpet must be cut to go around the bar just above the mounting plate, The floor plates are pretty self explanatory on the main hoop because of the "footprint" after you drill and mount the backing plate on the main hoop - don't tighten them down yet so you will have some "wiggle room" aligning the rear "legs" - YOU MUST MAKE SURE WHEN YOU DRILL THE LEG HOLES, YOU WILL NOT HIT THE ABS WIRES.....
Use the pics provided to get a feel for where the legs go and put the bolt through the mounting points on top and mark your location with a sharpie before you drill - Take a step back take a deep breath and see if everything looks symetrical and in place, even after I took the time to do it right, It was a pain in the ass to get the Legs to line up, it took quite a bit of tugging and pulling to get the bolts up top through.
Dont forget to caulk the shit out of the mounting holes and backing plates now that you just drilled a bunch of holes through your car

I have installed two of them in the same day with the help of the other owner! If you can afford the install then go for it but I am a DIY'er and I like to learn how to do things on my own! Grab a budy who is handy w/ tools if your not comfortable doing it yourself - It really isn't hard
