From the way the fender piece is cut it looks exactly the way the 3M is cut on mine. The quality of the 3M is very poor on mine compared to the rest of the Xpel I have on the car.

Yeah. The 3M was on my wife's C70. When I got my RX done with XPel we compared her car to mine and changed it over. XPel has gone on all my vehicles and hers since then

I just forced them in, they will not move. The overhead console is tight. And also I recommend you use some wire loom cloth tape to wrap around the wires to help silence them when you go over bumps, and also secure everything tight. I didn't do that and need to open it back up to do that to get rid of a rattle when I go over hard bumps...

IMO it's the cleanest looking and best phone holder for our car.

Love the look on this. Any chance you can direct me towards a link or something on how to. take the trims off to avoid breaking any clips?

Thanks to MX5NES350... these hinge covers were just $10 and literally a snap to install. I'm probably the only person who will notice them, but definitely worth it...

Had plans to wash the ride early this morning before the sun came out strong, but the rain started and didn't stop until the afternoon. Broke out the bucket and hose at about 7:00 pm and went to work... pretty satisfying result.
