Q: Do you have to remove the plastic rocker panels to take the new steps on and off OR do they just unbolt and can be removed easily?

They come off fairly easy but do rub against the flare, inside the cut-out, when removing them. If you use your rock rails, you can eventually forget about taking them on/off again as the rails will eventually move upward permanently from then weight of the H2. I ended up having to extend my rails outward by 3/4" to prevent this from happening. At the same time I extended them, I also brought them back down to where they provide the factory spacing between the rail/flare. I also added some cross bracing on the rails to strengthen them up, so the weight of the H2 would no longer be a problem.
These are probably the best looking steps for an H2, IMHO. They do have some negatives to them though.
