Depends on whether you're talking about getting new stuff or second hand.

Good question, guess second hand will be fine maybe not towbar? Never fitted one but guess new electrics are better than old ones!!

Depends on the type of side steps you want, but I have some genuine LR stainless steel ones (large tube type) which are listed in the parts and accessories for sale section at £100…

For comparison, there is a set on eBay at the moment with a missing/damaged end cap for £139…

The wife is a short arse, not sure if tube ones will help her get in and out as easy as the flat type ones?

In that case the flat type are probably safer…

There are usually a few sets on eBay, but the brackets on the genuine LR ones can rot out…

All make your trousers dirty when you get in or out, if you are too tall to use them. I hate the things myself and would take them off, if they were on the car when bought.

i mainly have them for getting in the car as I step onto them and then lower myself into the seat as my left knee does not bend so good and it helps .
