There's a difference in the "depth" of the pinch weld on one side (height of floorpan vs height of rocker). The unique door frames for the vert come with extra steel on the outboard side to support the x-brace and add stiffness. The ZL1 Addons Vert pads are cut down on one side so they properly fit this beefier panel at the pinch weld. If you don't cut down the outboard side, the set screw will not engage.
