I bought 3 stud kits before I settled in on the best one. don't go the cheap route on this one! they are very easy to install. just mark there location according the the assembly manual, drill a pilot hole, srew new studs in ans place the retainers on the studs. then pop on the moldings. not to bad at all. dave
