Default wheel-well trim

I just ordered and recieved the aluminum wheel well trim. Its not the stick on kind...like the belt line trim, but it seems each piece screws/bolts on in 4 places. I did not get any instructions, and i dont know, but I may be missing some hardware...all I got was a bag of screws. Does anyone else have these? And how do you install them? PTCruiserparts.com shows them (though I did not order them from there)if you are wondering http://www.autotrucktoys.com/stores/...ID=434&CATID=1

Do I have to drill holes somewhere? Again, PTCruiserparts rates them as an easy project, but with no directions, Im a little lost. Any help here would be aprreciated.

Thanks,
Keep on Cruisin'

On that link there's a How Do I Install this link. A simple line pic shows up, but it is easy to under stand.
I wonder if using 3M tape might be an option vs. drilling?

PTPauls idea is well worth checking out. Its easier to take off some adhesive that to fill in a hole you drilled. But to screw them on take some masking tape and put then in place holding them with the tape. mark the holes and drill. The screws are probably self taping so they make thier own thread as you screw it in. Remove the tape and you are done!

Thanks for your responses/ideas PTPaul & Crash. <img src=icon_smile_cool.gif border=0 align=middle> I did see that little line drawing on PTCruiserparts, but was just wondering if anyone else had any better ideas or input. It turns out, there was a mistake with the supplier at the website I ordered them at, and I got shipped the wrong set of fender trim. none-the-less, the people at Aaptec.com have been helpful and expediant in replying and getting me the right parts. They are even going to reimberse me for the return postage, as it is a large package. If anyone is interested in getting the fender trim, it's on sale there too...beats any price I have seen yet. Anyway, thanks again guys.

Keep on cruisin!!<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
