You got the idea.. just be a little less gentle..lol

So you take the pins inside the fenders out (marked "1")

Then I used the rocker itself to pull the christmas tree fasteners down.

Mine didn't come out all the way, but enough for me to slip the stockers off and the new ones in.

Once this was done, I used a screwdriver to pull out the head of the fasteners that didnt slide in the new rocker right.

Then you are done

Takes around 30 minutes for the first one and 5 for the second. lol

Good luck!

Yeah im pretty sure you just take out the fender bolts and then just yank on it(gently but with force) If that made any sense
