Hey Guys.

I've took the side steps off my Freelander due to corroding brackets & trying to trace a rattle on the car. I prefer it with them off as we really don't use them, so I'm giving away a set of sidesteps. They are the aluminium ones, but the brackets will need repairing or replacing. I'm in the City Quay area of Dundee if anyone wants to come and collect them. Otherwise I'm just going to skip them.
 
Bloody typical,I've just bought a set of black ones off ebay which arrived today! Is it the tear drop shaped ones you've got, if so I'll take them off your hands! :)
 
Nah,they're not what I was looking for!
Your car looks fine with them on,be prepared for getting your doors dunted in the supermarket car park if you leave them off,my doors have been done twice so I can't get my rails on quick enough!
 
I've got the side strips on the doors and park miles from the entrance of supermarkets. I hate carparks. I thing the ground clearance is better without them, and the brackets are a mess, I'll post picture later to show the corrosion.
 
I think they must have been an extra on the GS spec car, they do a good job at stopping car doors resting/banging on the side of the car. I've noticed a lot of freelancers without them, but again a lot do have them so not sure if it's an extra or aftermarket.
 
I have the TD4 Sport on 04 and I think that style of step/runner was standard on the sport.

I too have corroded brackets, not a mark on the car anywhere but the brackets are fu**ed. But I like the step, so I'm looking into making new brackets..

Dundee - perfect, I will take them off your hands if you don't want them as mine are steel and rusted badly. PM sent :)
 
With all this swapping of steps does anyone have any spare brackets?

It would save me making them as I can't find any, I'd gladly pay postage.

Thanks
