The key step missing: wash the car first. No point in locking dirt under theguards. Also, I'd include scion instructions pdf in the OP.
Nice pics. |

As for the stock instructions, that's a good idea. They've been added to the original post

Just finished installing today. Great write up. Only $50 for the set from Toyota.
NOTE - Not sure why, but the baggies of screws and clips have different part numbers than the OP's bags. However, the front hardware is packaged with a front splash guard and the rear hardware is packaged with one of the rear splash guards. Even if you get them mixed up, only the rear uses the short metal clips, so that bag belongs to the back. |

Thank you.
I will be doing this and dedicate the install to you. Although it looks dangerous, if I cut myself with one of the mud guards I will also be suing everyone in this thread.
