I’ve fitted loads of different brands but I find these the best quality & easiest to fit. Andy.

Nice mate. Thanks for that. I'll probably have a nip down the M6 then as it won't cost me £50 in diesel.

I’ve just purchased some sidesteps (not from sidesteps sadly as bought before seeing this thread) and they require cutting the plastic trim under the car - this isn’t an issue but, I am having serious issues with installing the nearside rear bracket as there are a couple of metal pipes (fuel) obstructing the threaded hole and I can seem to move them enough to locate the bracket. Has anyone (tyrefitter maybe?) come across this and resolved?

Model is 2017 SCV8.

Thanks

Mmmm that’s the side where the fuel pipes run which you need to watch out when cutting plastic trim that you don’t catch a pipe but I’ve never come across where the bracket are close to the the pipes,,can you take a pic & post it.? Andy.

Hi Tyrefitter, thanks for the reply.

Pictures attached of the bracket and then the issue when trying to align.

The bracket doesn’t extend over the pipes and then I can’t seem to move the pipes enough to squeeze the bracket under.

Can’t remember ever having these issues when I gotten steps to my L320!

Thanks, those are the brackets shown in the page of the item I purchased but, when they arrived they were the ones above.

I have contacted the seller repeatedly demonstrating how they do not fit however, now the seller is stonewalling me saying to get a garage to fit them (which I think is quite dismissive) and they are adamant they are 100% correct.

Bit of a nightmare tbh as all the other brackets are simple to fit, even taking into account the dremelling of the plastic trim.

Hi Tyrefitter, just for confirmation do you find that the rear brackets are usually a different design/shape between near and offside as I believe this is the issue with the set I have received, with them both being the same design there is no consideration of the brake/fuel lines on the nearside.

Thanks

Yes the rears are totally different for the reason of the fuel pipes.If you look at the 2nd & 4th bracket,you can see the difference for clearance of fuel pipes.
