Don’t be deceived into buying a cheaper product pay a few dollars more and get something that absolutely works.
I changed the passenger and driver side and went through five packages (four with Amazon and one with eBay) until I got two that worked (not perfectly, but hey, you are saving money by not buying the OEM). You first need to glue the top plastic piece because the manufacturer barely uses any glue, see the photo. You can use the J-B Weld 50139 Plastic Bonder Body Panel Adhesive and Gap Filler Syringe to glue it.
The person installing it, tried and tried, but he could not get a good alignment between the top and bottom pieces. The plastic that runs across the windshield could not be aligned with the top piece. The gap that is left creates a whistling sound in the cabin when driving at freeway speeds. See the video.
I returned the first two (passenger and driver side to Amazon) and got two new ones. The new ones were better regarding the alignment, but one broke two days after installing it and flew away while driving (thankfully, no one was hurt) to get it removed to send it back to Amazon.
I returned it to Amazon, but Amazon refused to send a new replacement. I bought the identical product from eBay, and the difference is that eBay sent the product in a larger box covered in bubble wrap. Amazon sent the packages in the original product box, and all the packages I received were heavily beaten (probably at the warehouse).
Amazon is now saying that I did not return the product completely (the top piece flew off on the freeway), and it's refusing to give my money back. If you need to return this because any part is broken and it's already installed, be sure to get it off yourself quuckly because Amazon wants to receive all the plastic garbage.
Amazon says that the customer is first, but I have been dealing with two issues with them during this month, and they act like any other big corporation, be careful.
If you decide to install this product, I suggest ordering it on eBay (seller Carid) because the package will be protected when sent to you.

Those are my tips I would recommend using this product and think anyone that can use a nut driver or socket set can easily do this install themselves. Now only time will tell on how good this products really is and if it everything stays secure.
Just a note, we needed to install new pieced for both the underside piece that houses the weather stripping as well as the smooth top piece that snaps in on top.
