I used there installation kit-but added material to reach down to outer panel crimp(look at pics of cutout^^^^) Actually was pretty staightforward but your own your own-they are universal--have not installed striker yet-will post when I do-waiting to get 1 piece window kits-to see if I will have a rubbing problem on back edge of glass against the claw body--in their video U only have 3/4" of clearance from door end to glass edge-just want to make sure before going farther that I don't have to alter claw mounting-Yes I'm anal about fit and finish!!...lol....found out a long time ago about "take time for the details--pays off in the end"............jim
