They don't fit the x6 g06. They only fit the x5 g05. I am selling my units now. I did try to put them onto a friends x5 and they seem to look and fit great!

I agree that they look nice but they just don't stick.

They use 3m adhesive. The trick is to use a hair dryer or heat gun to warm up the adhesive before you put it on. Guaranteed sticking won't be a problem. Repeat them process to remove my them with ease

Correct, I used to install wood imitation trims years ago, and using a heat gun was the way to go in order to activate the glue, the only thing comparing the kits i installed is that on my kits the whole backside was covered with 3M backing tape, so the glued surface was total not just a few stripes of double sided tape, not talking about speaker covers, talking about big trim pieces

I've used the strip adhesive in two other vehicles in the past and have had zero problems actually. I've actually shipped them out to a fellow forum member out in Toronto who should have them in 5-7 days. Would be nice to get some pictures once you have them on mate!
