tutorial for ipl side sills?

Can anyone point me in the right direction on removing factory sills? I would like to replace them with the IPL skirts.
Are they an easy DIY?

There are screws on either end, and some on the bottom. Then there are plastic clips holding it on... I would search through google.

Searched "IPL side sills" and this was the tenth post down, after yours.

I just did mine last night! There are a bunch of bolts on the bottom, you have to remove first, then you remove the 2 screws that hold on each side by the front and rear tire. Then you just VERY SLOWLY start pulling it. Pull away from the car, if you pull down in any way, it will break the clip and support together. I also used a screwdriver wrapped in wet napkin to slowly pull back the top, this was pretty helpful. If you click the DIY link above ^ I reuploaded the missing pictures on the last page. If you need any help let me know.

I'm actually planning on doing mine today, lately feels like a lot of people are slapping them on.
