How are these fastened to the car? Is it necessary to drill holes into the metal?

Yes, two holes need to be drilled in to the metal. It helps if you pull the wheel off to get the proper angle for drilling the hole.

Go to some of the sites that offer these for sale. Some of them list the installation instructions and that will tell you if you need to drill holes

One screw goes into the existing hole and the other needs to be drilled. No worries, small hole in the rear rubber bumper. This attaches to the inside lip of the rear wheel well. The rock guards work great.

It is not necessary to drill holes screws already there in plastic black piece

Yes, you have to drill holes but not in metal as far as I could tell, just plastic.

No, they are secured with bolts during setup. The bolts are in prefixed positions.

Yes, that's how I installed them, they pop into place. Now if you want to remove them after installation it would be much easier to remove the wheel from the car and pop them out.

This Receiver mounts directly to the factory bumper using the existing holes. No brackets or drilling. Simply slide it under, align the holes and feed the bolts through. Hope you have skinny fingers as theres not much room for the nuts between the steel bumper and the outer plastic bumper shell.

Bolt holes will not perfectly match up. Not a big deal. Drill a new hole. These are made to bolt on with your backrest. I put a luggage trunk on it so I cut the backrest and used the threaded part as spacers. Worked well!!

There were pre-drilled holes for the included screws in my 2013 Rav4. It was a very easy install. Nothing complicated, just screw them in.

Yes they do, but i've found it's very dificult to actually use, i just use the drill bit on my car with out the base. Works pretty fine like that. Also, this does not fit all cars.

They are fastened using screws. It is a very solid cost hanger and the hooks don't move even when heavily loaded. I'm really happy with it.

They have two mounting holes as pictured. I found them to be a very tight fit in arranging the assembled unit on the axle, but when properly aligned they worked perfectly.

Yes they do. No drilling required. Pull tape tabs and install like OEM ones.

Good Morning,These are VERY easy to install, as long as you have a couple of simple tools. A flat bladed screwdriver, and a pair of pliers should do the trick.PLUS, you are taking apart and installing PLASTIC connectors, so be sure to take your time when pulling them out, and putting them back into the holes.Hope that helpsRegardsChuck

you don't have to assemble them you have to install them. you have to know how to do basic wiring on a vehicle. my son didn't have problems, but he is an auto technician. he likes them and did not have issues with installing.

They are metal. Be aware, however, they are not easy to install. If you can't solder or weld find someone that will install them for you before purchasing.

They DO NOT mount to the doors. They mount to the body on the Windshield pillar. I used the factory bolts.

These cup holders do have predrilled holes. However, I don't recall how far apart the holes are. You could probably just screw through the plastic to make you own hole. That's what I would have done if the holes didn't fit in my vehicle.Lisa H. from October 30, 2014 is spot on! These are not made for locking in a cup securely in place. Looking back I would have returned these but I didn't want to go through the hassle. You get what you pay for!

Four screws and rubber spacer .. The spacers go into holes already into your hood.. When you tighten the screws the nut inside the spacer expands locking it down into those holes in your hood... no drilling required..

Hi Luis L,No holes...you won't need to screw it on. Once adheared to the car..it doesn't come off again. My hubby is a car guy and washes it constantly. The emblem is not budging :-)
