no. Everything is a direct bolt in
hardest thing about it all is cutting the rivets that hold the original stuff in

If you have the aluminum rivets, just knock out the rivet center post with a punch and use a good metal chisel to knock the head off. If you have the steel rivets, then your going to have some fun drilling the heads off as the tend to spin instead of drilling out.

I had a truck with one door aluminum rivets and the other were steel. I wound up grinding the heads off the steel rivets....

Steel rivets are OEM. Aluminum tells me that the regulator was changed at one point
