Got mine on yesterday and they look GREAT.
If you want to replace the OEM ones, then they have to be removed. You cannot put OEM ones over the existing ones.

Exactly. So it sounds like the OEM ones just pull off?

I bought the covers but didn't like the added height so I returned them.

There was a post on another forum that detailed how to remove them for a 2004-2008. When I get home, I'll look for it. There's more to it than just pulling them off. You have to get the window trim out of the way first before taking them off. Surely the 2009-2014 can't be any different.

Of course you can't put OEM over OEM. this thread is talking about the covers so that's why I said that.

These two post refer to the OEM ones and not the stick on ones.
