Re: Body Side Protectors (Honda) Install Summary

It took a few minutes to cut the measuring templates, but it actually made the measuring go much faster. The 100 mm straight across on the front door and 100/102 mm slightly sloping space on the back door between the top molding and the bottom were a breeze.

When we started on the passenger side of the truck, we went faster than we'd gone on the driver's side. A word of caution: make your measurements in the approximate location of the lines in the drawing on the instruction page. If you measure too far in from the edges of the doors, it throws your lines off.

Another hint is for you to have another set of hands if you have the luxury of doing so. It sure helps on the stepping back to eyeball it and with getting both ends lined up. We also peeled it off after the initial end stick a couple of times and that would have been more difficult with only one person. I know a few people have done the whole thing without the measuring and most have done it by themselves, but I am not that brave.
