    I bet there's bolts, they may require wrenches, or spanners

    Owners manuals are overrated. How else is a trucker to acquire extra nuts, bolts and fasteners for his spare kit....

    I have the 2010. Should be similar. Remove step under door- 6 bolts. There is sort of a pipe that runs length-wise along the inside of the skirt that is nested/clicked into place. Twist to release and it swings down. Or well it has been a long time since I messed with it, may have to remove rear step behind fuel tank as well and the middle skirt lays down.
