3 on top under hood, 1 right up top when you open the door, 2 at the bottom behind the side skirt, 1 towards the front right behind the headlight. You will have to pull the side skirt down a little to get to those 2 bolts.

Ya you gotta take off the sideskirt. I don't know how you would just pull the end down.

Pull on it until the clips pop off, but try not to break them, then grab the clip with some pliers if its still stuck to the body, and twist it and pull it out. Then slide it back into the slot on the side skirt and snap it back in when youre done. Youll know what Im talking about when you take it off. I just did it a few days ago.

^Wrong way to take off the side skirt.

If you want to do it the right way, unscrew the two screws at the front of the side skirt, behind the front tires. Make sure your fender liner is clear, and SLIDE the skirt towards the front of the car. The clips will come off that way without breaking.

Exactly.

Take off screws on front side of skirt and under if there is any(like mine) and just slide it towards the front of the car. To put it back on, take the clips out of the holes and slide them on to the sideskirt itself. Once you do that just line up the clips with the holes and gently push the sideskirt in towards the car and screw everything back in.
