DIY fitting side steps?

I've just picked up a new set of side steps (genuine), I've looked at the fitting instructions and no where does it say you need a captive nut rivet gun?....the reason for me questioning this is the stealer said I do!
Mine is a 06, and without taking it all apart does anyone know if they are already plugged into the the sill panels or do I need to borrow/invest in a captive nut gun?

Cheers! Live Life Adventurously!

All fitted...look amazing!
Easy job, first one took 50mins, second one 35...only tricky bit is cutting the plastic panels, however that's not that bad as they mark them out for you....and lastly no special tools required for those who are thinking of fitting them!
