Mounting those side molding on a Westy is no problem.  You will need to
know the exact placement of the brackets holding the moldings.  The only
difference that you will encounter when you are finished is that you will
need a new jack as they are different from the regular vans.  You will
notice that the side moldings has holes in them for the jack and the
special jacks have a  differently shaped arm that can fit through those
holes all the way in.
