Roof rack installation

hey does anyone know how to install edm/jdm roof rack/rails on a wagon? i removed the headliner and everything, just to take a look if honda was convenient in making this an easy installation, and i understand they are MEANT to bolt through the rain gutters. do i have to remove the rubber that runs along the gutters? would i see premade holes? how do i put the rubber back in once i take it out?

    i dont think anyone on this site has done the EDM/JDM roof rails yet. if you have them, which i assume you do... line it up to where it is supposed to be and see where you have to drill.

    that way you can tell if you have to remove the rain gutter, which i doubt.. anyways...

    where they line up it looks like the bolts go THROUGH the rain gutter area because the rails have creases where it looks like it rested on the original vehicle.. that is what looks OEM to a beagle. im looking at the pictures with a few of memebers on here with the same rails, and it looks like they installed them differently, like inside the rain gutters.

    i guess just make sure you are careful where you drill ;)
