The solution in recommended case works fine till load command. But when we try to write code it won't work.
May be cuz I'm using Sikuli with python.

How can we install selenium webdriver for python version?

When you use the SikuliX IDE and script using Python language, then internally the Java-based Jython interpreter is used.

This means, you can use any Java library (like the selenium jar) directly in your scripts.

As for selenium, you have to take care for the prerequisites, depending on what type of webdriver you want to use.

then the steps as of question mentioned in comment #1 work.

In any case, you should use SikuliX 1.1.1+
