I dont recall ever seeing step by step instructions with pics on here. Not to talk down on your abilities but installation is actually pretty easy. I remember just messing with it a lot until I finally realize how easy it was. Just pull the rubber trim out of the way so the hook will fit properly, not doing so will have the hooks hanging on about halfway. The visors should fit really well before you take the tape off.

Mine are on, let me know if you want pics and I can try to snap some.

Now how about door handles?

About to install the visors but I'm confused... The instruction pics are confusing. The clips are pointing downwards and I'm suppose to pull the rubber trim out a little and slide the clips face downwards into the door trim. But when I close the doors, the clips will bend if I do. Is that how it suppose to be? Can someone enlighten me please?

Whats weird is the clip points down. I thought the clips are suppose to hang on the door instead of resting down.
