Has anyone done them yet on the new body trucks?

If so, how was the install, any problems or issues that came up?

I installed them on my 07.5 a few weeks back. Probably a little bit different than yours because I do not have the SLT trim package. It was not too bad. If I remember correctly there were three screws and then clips all along the sides and bottoms of the door. Make sure that you pull the doors straight out so that the clips do not break. Also the covers have to be taken off of the locks (up by the window). Getting to the screws that hold the handle in place requires about a six inch extension for you ratchet. For all four doors it probably took about 1.5 hours. The first one took about 45 minutes. After I got it figured out, the rest took about 15 minutes each.
