I have a set I'm about to install and I was planning on just using ramps. Reading other install threads I found many people installed them without lifting the car at all.

You can just lay down at the side of the car to fit these. No lift needed.

Mines lowered and i did mine using a mirror.

Using one of my wife's 4" x 4" vanity mirrors helped, especially when scraping the sealant. I didn't have to raise the car.

I'm not Houdini so I used ramps and blocks. Good thing because the protruding rear rocker drain caused a mis-aligned bolt hole, causing a cross threaded bolt, causing me to have to hog out the bolt holes. Also, I don't know what the large hole is in the rails except to fill up with dirt and water, so I sealed it off. Otherwise real happy with the quality of the BMR rails.

I did mine the exact same way.
