Yes. Any dealership should be able to do it for you, or you can do it yourself (theres a land rover fitting guide floating around). Looked a bit complicated to me personally Laughing .

You can attempt it yourself, but as with a lot of these things it's easier to have someone else do it.

its a lot harder to fit them first though Jay as you have to fit the brackets underneath the car and change all the side moulding trims

Once they are fitted it is easy to remove the 6 bolts and take them off and leave the brackets in place

I thought the LR steps are dealer fit anyway, even if you spec them from new? Runner up - 2009 Best Avatar Award Sad

Am I missing the point boyd, but can you not just get them mail ordered to you from wherever your nearest dealer is?

You can get the steps from any dealer. Easy to fit, and easy to take off. The RRS ones come with pre cut sill covers Thumbs Up If you have a basic knowledge of a socket set you will have no problem.

OEM LR side steps are easy to get at yr dealer for about 850 eur in Europe ,but for aftermarket ones you have to order them in the UK and postage is very expensive due to measurements,if they even want to send them to you.
If you know a dealer who sells the aftermarket ones outside the UK ,pls let us know

Don't go aftermarket, go OE Thumbs Up

Just look at the dogs dinner Misery's ended up looking with some cheap, shoddy aftermarket steps....
