dumb request how to install rear mudguards (3GTL Garage# E-097)

History I wrecked my 05 TL and just replaced it with an identical car. The dealer gave me the flaps but due to a mix up did not install them. They are 26 miles away and I said I would stick them on. The fronts are just bolt ons but the rear ones it looks like you have to drill some holes to put them on. anybody got the manual or some pics?

Before doing the rear mud flaps, because space is so limited because of the wheel/tire, make sure you have a very short (stubby) Phillips screwdriver, otherwise you may have to remove the wheel to gain access.

thanks I do have a short phillips and a floor jack and torque wrench if I have to pull the wheels. i sort of wanted to take them off anyway so I could use some Klasse on the inside of the wheel it makes it easier to get rid of the brake dust.
