Had mine for about 1 week.
Since my car is manufactured in June 2012, the chassis screws has full threadlocker throughout the threads, and had to use a hammer impact screwdriver to remove the bolts, plus using WD-40 to have it "soak" overnight. Lesson learned is that the larger the hammer, the better to remove the old screws.

I can confirm that the above feeling of better door closing and window rattle is significantly reduced. As for lateral movement and stiffness, it's a simple way to marginally increase stiffness on an already stiff chassis. But, I have a BMW E46 at home and it has something similar to this door stabilizer to reduce and connect the gap between the door and chassis, so it seems that Aisin/TRD is doing great to emulate the concept.
