Anyone install side molding?

Hi,

I just purchased the '09 last week and am interested in getting side moldings to protect against door dings.

Is this very easy to install with respect to ensuring everything lines up properly?

Thanks!

Side guards

I'm doing mine later today. Ordered them from a dealer in Texas. About $100 including shipping.

Google toyota side mouldings.

Looks pretty easy. Toyota includes instructions. You use a tape measure and masking tape to line up where to install them.

I had the dealer do mine..I know some folks like it without body side moulding but I like it a lot. I think it cost me about $122.00 for it and $30.00 for them to install. Looks really good.

I completed mine. Pretty easy. Just make sure you keep the tape strips plum. I used a square T, followed the instructions and they came out looking great. Took my time so I spent about 1 1/2 hours. If you follow the directions the angle of the guards will follow the angle of the body lines on the upper body.

Thanks! Sounds easy based on your input so I'll do it! I just ordered mud guards and all weather mats, so maybe I can add it onto the order.
