Running Boards Steps Pics Needed

RUNNING BOARDS PICS NEEDED
Just picked up our 2023 Wildtrak and wanting to install some running boards. I'm leaning towards a power step to keep the clean sideline look but selection are limited.
Was hoping that I could get a little feedback, but mostly, PICS from fellow G6'rs that have installed aftermarket steps for a better look at the 3rd party market availability and styles. When I have installed aftermarket step in the past I always find myself adding additional supports or modification to assure a good solid feeling step that I feel would hold up. Often aftermarket manufacturers target easy installation but seem to fall short on solid firm installations.

Go Rhino RB20’s on my 23 Wildtrak with bedliner finish. Solid for sure, easy install.

I just installed the DV8 rock slider / step combos. They’re great:

I ended up going with the RSE deployable slider steps a week after taking delivery of my WT and I couldn’t be happier. Not very difficult install and they are great. Rock fling protection, steps the right height, lights in the steps, and they are true rock sliders. Oh, and closed they are another step to the stand on to do stuff on the roof. I have no affiliation with RSE, and paid full price after lots of research.

This is the only pic I have of it with the sliders. I can add more if you want them.

I went with aluminum steps from Greenlane Offroad in Canada. They are 36 pounds per pair on the 2 door, so about 15 pounds less than the stock steel sliders while also protecting the sides from damage.

Ended up going with the Expedition One slider steps. Definitely solid, but there’s more options out there now than when I bought these that might offer more.

Another vote for the RSE's. They will be one of the first mod's for the Mses. replacement OBX Wife-Squatch when it arrives late Spring.

Looks awesome and I keep coming back to these. You install yourself or have a shop do it? Also, did you put in the override switches for when the doors are off?

Shop installed but I have removed the steps and re-installed them myself a couple of times and it is fairly easy. The wiring and sensors are simple enough that I will self install on my wifes when it shows up. I also relocated the sensors and added some magnets to the tube doors so the steps function when they are installed. For this reason, I did not install the manual switch for when the doors are off as I probably won't ever run that way now that I got the tube doors. However, there is a global kill switch installed to turn the steps on and off if you don't want them coming down at all.

I did the install by myself, it is not that hard. I did the driver side by myself with a motorcycle lift, and it was tricky to get lined up. Wife grabbed one end on the passenger side and it slid right in. So an extra set of hands will be helpful for that part. Took me about 3 1/2 hours, but I was fartin' around and cleaning mud out of the underside while doing it. I got the lights, but haven't put in the door delete yet. I will probably do that soon.

I went with the amp power step that looks like a slider and love them!

I went the cheap route as this is my wife's daily driver. We won't be hitting any rocks so did not need to get something for protection. I like the look and very easy to install.
