Yeah, I have the same ones. YES, THEY ARE A #$!%## TO PUT IN! I think the best way to put it on is to position the clips and then tape them with scotch tape so they hold in place. Therefore, you can work on aligning and tightening the screws. I thought about doing it, but I was impatient at the time, so I tried doing it without the tape. It took awhile, but I finally got it on.

BTW, I drove with it some more on the highway, it's not that bad either. Just keep in mind, DO NOT tighten the screws too much. When I did, the wind made it vibrate when I hit above 40 MPH. It was loud and annoying. At first, I thought it was my new Borla Duals I put it, but later realized it was the deflector.

The only thing is, there seems to be a little more wind noise with them on. I will try it some more the next few days then remove it to see if I can tell the difference.

EDIT: Next mod is to get Window module for my car alarm. I took my dog out this morning and I was admiring the chrome door spears I just put on last night and looked at the windows thinking to myself "Damn! They're so clear you can see right through them". Well, after looking at them closer, I realized the windows (driver side and passenger side) were open and it was raining. [V] Fortunately, it was raining very light and it just started about an hour ago. Hopefully I didn't ruin my leather seats. At least with the window module, once the car arms itself, the windows will go up automatically. Unfortunately, I'll need 1 to control the front windows, 1 to control the rear, & another for the sunroof.
