Theres are guides online, basically you have to drill out the spot welds to get the old one out. If they are really shot, (like mine are) the pinch weld is rusted off and you will have to cut away all thats left of the rocker and weld something to the unibody to connect to the rocker panel. It can be a PITA haha
