@Jamie, not sure which dealership told you this, but it's not true at all. None of the tires need to come off and it took me about 20 minutes or so. You can buy it from Sewellparts.com (comes out to about $66) and they also have installation instructions right there on their website for you to download. Pretty straight forward and simple.

MX5 is right, no drilling required for me either. I actually just used the same screws that came with the kit to puncture through the idents. It was nice and easy.

No problemo. I am getting them installed tomorrow along with A-pillar and along the top of the windshield. I'll post a new topic to cover the clear-bra instead of highjacking threads when the questions arise.

Thanks for the feedback, I kinda thought the dealership was feeding me a line in hopes I'd let them do the install. Looks like another project to add to my husbands honey do list!

Thanks Anita and Happy. I must admit I'm loving it so far and I'm a male driver (not sure why so many claims the RX as their Wife's car). Also, I'm coming from the Lexus IS300 manual car to the RX. I guess I am getting old. We test drove a few other SUVs and I really thought I would choose the Q5. But instead, I find myself falling in love with Lexus all over again the moment I got behind the wheels and test drove this baby. I ended getting the RX with silver exterior and black interior, same as my IS300.
