I need to get some pics of my attachments.

My wheel skirts are held on by one screw and two pins. There are three tabs and a bracket that are the mount points for the 1/4" metal rods (1 top and 1 bottom) that support my skirts. My skirts are sheet metal from the top of an old S10 cab.

The top rod (straight) slides through a tab at the rear of the wheel well and the front of the rod has a bracket attached. That fits into a bracket mounted to where the trim used to be right in front of the wheel well and these brackets are held together by one screw. If you look closely at the pic the hole in the front of the skirt about midway up the door. That is where you poke the screwdriver to get to the one screw.

The bottom rod (U shaped) slips through tabs (really metal wire clamps) and are pinned in place.

Pull the two pins and one screw and the skirt comes right off. Going back on is a pain in the butt.

I only had to drill one additional hole that wasn't already put there at the factory.
