need help guys, anyone know how to install ltuned side planning to do it myself if possible .

 

Very easy to do. It will come with instructions also if you bought it through Sewell.

 

Takes about 10-15mins to per side.
Need to remove fender and qt. moulding clips plus rocker moulding clips under the car.

 

sounds hard already , lol

 

it's not hard at all. the two flaps on the front and rear fender they are only clips and screws on the sides. and then just open up your doors and you see all the screws holding the skirts. also tehre are taps underneath the car as well that you have to take off. after that it will fall

 

I not not need to remove the fender ,like drukin said.
Then I think I could do it.

 

you don't need to remove the whole fender, just the little pieces. the one that's right behind the front wheel and in front of the front door, and also the one right behind the rear door and in front of the rear wheel. both are towards the bottom, right above the stock skirts

 

Hope this thread helps:

btw, as long as you got new push connectors, you can save time by pulling down on the old side skirts (after removing all screws) and just letting the old connectors break away

 

here's the front molding removed

 

it does take a little force to pop this off

 

you can see how carefully designed lexus stuff are, small panel but a lot of attachment spots

 

I have the L-Tuned kit on the way and after reading this thread I think I will try and put them in myself as well. Pulling motors out doesn't bother me, but for some reason lining up body panels sounds harder. Anyways, just to plan ahead I went to the dealership today and picked up a few clips as I'm sure at least a couple will break trying to get them off. They ran $2 each so i'm hoping they are the right ones (little white ones with black gasket type things on them.

Kinda funny because when I told the guy why I needed them he jumped right in about how LTuned is discontinued and therefore they won't have any clips.

 

The clips I received with my kit are all black. Kinda looks like an over grown screw (sorry - no pic)
The head is 3/4" dia and the length is 7/8".

 

Oh the kit comes with some? Didn't know that as mine is still in transit. I think the ones I picked up are for the fender moulding, but I guess I will see when start this project

 

one of these makes life a little easier when removing old clips. helps prevent clips from breaking off and staying in body
