Loving my steps, I've had them for about 2 weeks. The only thing I would have liked better is if they provided padded tape to apply on the inside of the brackets to protect the rock rails from scratches. (I bought my own and applied for protection.)
On my first Bronco when the Soft top was new I used the original seal, but didn't use the vinyl sheets. When I transferred to my new Bronco I used the trim below, and also used the vinyl sheets. I think I will remove the vinyl as I like the look of it without and did not notice any difference...
