If professionally installed, what was the cost? How long did it take to receive the side moldings once you ordered them? Just ordered a set last week for our new 2008 Prius. |

I've been on the fence about getting them for a while, but the only ding I have from a parking lot is on a spot that side-moldings wouldn't have protected. |

You can ask your dealer too, but dealers can be very expensive. My dealer wanted to charge me ~$300 to install them. But I think I've also read some people say that their dealer charged them a reasonable sum like $50. |

They only help if the other vehicle that opens their door into yours is the same height. Otherwise they are useless and you will still get door dings. |
