Hello , Yep fitted some of these to mine, instrutions are near as dam useless.

First do not remove the black plastic sill cover, there is not need to, but the instructions tell you to. Follow the instructions the best you can, undoing the chassis fixings is the most difficult part of all this. The first side will take you 2 >2.5 hours to do, once you have done that side the other side will only take you an hour, learning curve I think they call it. At the front part of the wing there is a bracket they tell you to remove & replace with one in the kit, there is no point, just use the original, it the same bracket, but the one on the car has a captive bolt & the one in the kit uses a nut and bolt, no point in making hard work for yourself. Happy fitting.

If you think thats hard, you want to try & follow Landrover towbar electric's instructions, i.e for twin electric's they are great fun, Oh and then when you have fitted it & test them you then find out there is no wire for the charging of the caravan battery, so you have to put in a loop wire from the fridge inside the plug for the battery.

Have fun
