Re: Body Side Protectors (Honda) Install Summary

"Two questions: any ideas where to find a good roller? Is it like a paint supply? Or should I be able to find it at Lowes or Sears, etc?"

"And maybe this is just stupid newbie talking. I look at all the pictures and meticulous measurements people do. But...don't these just fit in the grooves in the doors? With maybe the exception of the spacing for the rear doors, couldn't you just line it up with the groove and put it on?[/quote]"

Got my roller at Lowe's after some effort in the flooring dept tools and adhesives.

Truckin is right on. The indents are a guide only but you can screw up royal if you peel the tape off and twitch or drop one side down a whisker without knowing it. For me taping the string across the top crease line in the door was the hot ticket. Made it really easy to measure for lining up the tapes which are used for lining up the molding and viola! Perfect alignment.

I'll say this too-without this forum I would NEVER have tried this myself. Thanks to all you digital wizards who included your step by step photo's!!
