Are rocker panels difficult to remove? Should the seller do it?
I'm thinking when I start looking more seriously, I'll have to recruit someone locally that is a little more familiar to help me. |

There's a series of rivets along the top side, and three screws on the bottom. Getting the lower screws out can be difficult, since they tend to freeze into place. Some liquid wrench, vice grips, and cursing can help. |
