You dont' need WIS to do it
side skirt are hold in place by clips under the frame., and 4 near to the door steps
unscrew two screws from both the front and rear wheel... first., then use a little force to yank out the sideskirt,.

clips
I've heard that the clips typically break when removing the sideskirts, but is it the top half or bottom half of the clip that breaks?
I've called the dealer and they wanted $3.60 for the male clip and $2.25 for the female clip ($5.85 for the set). They also told me that I would most likely need all ten pieces (5 male and 5 female) plus the screws at each end that hold the sideskirts.
I'd like to know which ones I should expect to break so that I can have spares and avoid having to drive to the dealer with no sideskirts.
