Yea, the hardest part of installation is getting the screws through the holes...you sometimes lose the screw off the end of the screwdriver, but other than that it takes a short time.

the way the OEM blocks come apart is awesome, it makes it VERY easy to install them. i was amazed when i saw jims when he sent them up for paint, i had no idea thats how the OEM ones were at the time, i thought they were broken!! haha

the bottom base that attaches to the hatch is one piece, and it is held to the top portion by 3 screws. i noticed that the oem blocks are heavier, stronger, and are slightly designed differently because of the way the two pieces are attached together.
