Skid plates, price, easy to install?

I didn't order these and they look good. Anyone know if they're hard to install? Dealer source only?
Looking for the front and back ones.
Thanks!

Skid Plates

Did you ever find an alternate maker of the front or rear skid plates other than the dealer? Anyone know the answer to this?

Skid Plates

I found this place Mercedes Parts People dotcom for $195 front/ $351 rear (says rear with hitch - not sure if without is another part #, which I need). They also have some drawings in the Mechanical/ Collision catalog where you can get an idea about the installation, but is not clear what other parts are needed or how difficult easy it is.
There is another guy here JDT1 that had it done by the dealearship, maybe he can tell us https://mbworld.org/forums/gl-class-x164/218831-gl450-skid-plate-install.html
