R1S Rivian Blue
Just recently I thought about ordering some running boards, the EVSportline RMaxx ones. Initially I was just going to take all the plastic panels off, but a friend convinced me that would be easy enough to keep them on and seal them with Gorilla tape.

One of the install details that confuses me the most is the hole cutting, specifically for R1S. When looking at the cutting template, the rear panels for driver and passenger side shows the circle hole overlapping the jack point access hole.

So I'm thinking, how does it actually look like in real life? Every guide and photo I've searched for has no R1S as an example, its always the R1T that doesn't have this overlap detail.

How did everyone else that have this running board deal with this detail on the R1S? Looks like my alternative are to go my initial plan with removing the panels completely, or trying the L-shape cuts. Would really appreciate it if I could get an answer on here.
