Installing Roof Rails on 2004 v70 V70-XC70

I just bought some used roof rails to put on my v70. They came off a XC70. I can see that I have to remove the rain gutter runner and cut it out to fit the footings on the roof rail. Has anyone else done this? Is it difficult to remover the runner and the clips? Where should I start? I have all the hardware.....12 torx screws and washers, which account for the two screws on each foot (3 feet per rail) and 2 rails. But I also have two left over torx screws without washers and I am not sure where these are going to be used. Should I let the volvo body shop guys do it? Is there a chance I could screw it up?
