Side Steps

Hello,

Looking at some steps for my D4, do the plastic sill covers need cutting to fit? I'd rather not do that if possible.

I've been told that the genuine parts do not require the covers to be trimmed.

Thanks in advance

PJ

Genuine and copy steps are identical, covers need cutting in both cases. .

This is correct.

Just replaced my after market with these, also non LR

The first set lasted six years and 90,000 miles. Great value.

Top tip - apply something like Waxoyl during installation

I know a couple of forum members are taking their side steps off so maybe you could do a swap for their pre cuts steps for your uncut?.. always worth a shout out to see if anyone is game.. I want to see the sweets before I get into your windowless van... I'm not stupid!

If PJ doesn't want them I will take the sill covers from you as I am going to fit steps to my D4 (Mother in Law can't get in)

Im down in Glastonbury next week so can collect then

Cheers
