Black Sidesteps - Any Good?

Anyone know if these cheap eBay all black sidesteps are any good?

Mine have rusted through and need a cheap and easy replacement for now.

I get a link to a website called "hubnuts" which seems to be a holding or redirect site...

Back to the thread though, they look good Minty Smile hard to tell how solid they are from the photos though, no pictures of the brackets or the frame of the steps on the underside.

Hopefully someone on here has bought a pair and can confirm if they are made of cheese or not before I take a punt.

all links from D3/D4 forum to external sites go through other sites so that Martin gets money to run the our site.

suspect it just went a bit wrong for a while ? Worked for me a minute ago.

Interested to hear how they are. I have a similarly rotten set of originals. Although only the drivers side, for some reason.

Mine are fine (whole car is rust free 🙏) but seeing this has got me thinking of going black on the steps, may etch prime then spray the aluminium strips on mine, so may need to look at these replacements one I mess it up Smile

They are ok...I had to enlarge some of the bolt holes to get the brackets to align with the grooves in the steps.... They look good once fitted and my old steps practically dissolved when I took then off so definitely an improvement but the quality is what you would expect from a Chinese copy part.
