Default Stainless Steel Vert Hoops

I was thinking of installing those stainless steel (or chrome) hoops behind the seats on my very. I was wondering how difficult they are to install myself. What tools are required and how much time does the process take. Finally any pics or advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks

i think it took me a good 1/2 day, Its not hard to do. I used panel bonding adhesive. Some people actually bolt them in. Mind hold me up and i'm 215. Sorry don't have any pics to post
1. Basically remove the water fall
2. pull the carpet back
3. you will need to trim some of the adhesive off he floor bucket to make them sit level.
hope this helps
