I don't speak the language but basically it reads:
  1. Clean the back glass real well, you got some tape coming.
  2. Use an exacto knife to cut out all the two sided tape. We were too cheap to cut it for you.
  3. Put the two sided tape on the rear window, you'll need this later.
  4. Make sure its all exactly where it should be.
  5. Open the trunk to get the bottom tape in place, don't tape it to the top of your trunk.
  6. See, it goes right here, and here, and maybe here.
  7. Make sure it looks like this with the lid closed or you did it wrong.
  8. Open the lid, remove the one bolt on each side.
  9. Attach the only real bracket you are going to get to that bolt. This is what is going to save your bacon when you are traveling at Warp 3 with that supercharger you installed.
  10. Make sure it goes on this side of the cable or you'll have problems.
  11. Attach the hard attach points to the double sticky tape. Go ahead, trust us, really.
  12. Yea, same thing down here too.
  13. Screw your awesome louvers at all those attach points.
  14. Make sure you got all 8 of them.
Then it probably says something about how the louvers add at least 50HP, and make you even more awesome than you already are. Oh, and the disclaimer about there being no warranty written or implied that all that tape is going to hold this to the window, and you probably shouldn't drive with it on the car, particularly when traveling with your girlfriend in the trunk.

But I may be paraphrasing....

Yeah the directions seemed pretty self-explanatory. Not to enthused about tape holding on $900 in plastic... Did I just say $900 in plastic? Somebody get JonMotoring working on a Chinese knockoff already!

I almost need to order them and keep them in the closet. These are probably going to be a rare part when TRD stops making them.

It would be harder to see out of the prototype.

Also from what I have heard these are on back order currently.
