Jason,
Do you know what kind of modification needs to be done for these to fit onto non s-line models? I can't imagine it's that different between models, seems like the side blades themselves are the only visual difference and should be a simple "add on".

Thanks!

It depends on how you want to install them. If you want to mount them with screws you'll need to drill in to the rocker panel.

Most people mount them with 3M double sided tape. This requires no drilling and usually if installed with care can provide just as well of a hold as screwing them on.

I hope this helps!

Great, thanks! I wasn't sure if the "custom modification" for non s-line meant actually modifying the plastic part or getting the clips mounted.

I work at 3M, was hoping it would as simple as just using some double sided tape.

Yeah, it only really applies if you want to mount the clips using screws.

You would basically need to drill into the rocker panel, which if you plan to make them permanent wouldn't be so bad, but many would rather not drill screws into their vehicles.

Agreed, no holes = much easier.

Hope to be putting in an order in the near future!
