    I bought VR skins with pods attached. I removed my VN skins and the pods off the VR ones. Layed the VR skins on top of the VN ones and pushed a pen throught the holes and traced the main speaker hole. Jigsawed the big hole out, drilled the small screw holes and the pods went on perfect first pop.

    Now mounting the speaker mounts to the door was a bit trickier..bit of guess work combined with trial and error.

    i've currently got mine and they line up on the grouves at the front but not the back and have to be on the edge of the bottom , if that makes sense to u then yeah will be good mine weren't that hard to do the hard part is to get the speaker hole in the right place with the door , door trim and the pods other then that its fairly easy mine look good im still waiting for someone to explain how to put pics on here i;d show u

    I did my VN door pods using VS ones, and found that if you line up the front of the pod (speaker end) and make it overlap and the front of the door, it fits in snuggly, keeping it down as low as possible ensures you have plenty of room between the window winder and the pod. Great little upgrade this one!!
