Haha.. I wish.. that all goes away in fancy remote beer…Sweet!
There goes the travel per diem.
It's funny, I never see the MT sliders on 200's but they are common other Toyota models. I ran a set of their sliders on my 2012 FJC and I was very happy with them. I just checked freight for having them shipped and it's nearly $600 to Texas, that's insane. Slee sliders are over $200 cheaper and nearly $300 less on the freight using the same company, I can't justify the extra $500 for the MT sliders.
Have any more pics of your rig/tire/setup? Looks great!
I ordered the tube step sliders from Slee on January 11 and received them in San Diego on January 20, which is lightening fast compared to ordering sliders and other components for this and my prior builds. (Hello, Gobi, are you listening?) And, hats off to the freight company. The card board box in which the sliders arrived was pristine and Slee did a great job packaging everything to protect the sliders.
I spent a good part of the weekend installing them by myself with a floor jack to position the sliders. If you plan to tackle this job: (1) Make sure you have a 17/32 drill bit before you start. I spent too many hours on Saturday driving to various stores looking for the drill bit, which is not carried at HD, Ace, HF, etc. and I was lucky to find one; (2) Don't hesitate to sharpen the bit as you go along. Had I done so, instead of waiting until the bit practically stopped cutting, I would have saved a lot of time; and (3) Use your phone or a tablet to look at the pictures in the instructions. The pictures in the printed instructions accompanying the sliders are too grainy, which makes it difficult to determine where to drill.
The sliders look like the stock running boards from a distance, which I like. They are lighter than OPOR sliders that I put on my old 4Runner and Demello sliders that I put on a Taco, but I do feel the added weight when I drive. I hope they are as strong as folks have reported on this board.
White Knuckle. Great guy, good product. I don’t like the U-bolt design for reason if deflection mentioned about, but what’s knuckle give about the same clearance from his slider to the body as BudBuilt. So while a white knuckle deflects, it has the space to not hit the truck.
I have 3 kids as well (12 and under now )and went with flat with diamond plate. Mine are Budbuilt but that part doesn't matter. I've had them for maybe 4 years and only once did I have a scenario where I needed the flat. The one time was my elderly mother who had just gotten out of the hospital. Pretty sure she woulda struggled to get into a Camry at that point. Not ever with kids, they can climb anything and an angled step is still a step. If I could go back I'd do angled, just aesthetically I think looks better and that much less likely to get scratched up.nice
I'm still debating the 0 deg vs angled. I have 3 kids but looks like the angled is still a good step
How do you like the angled.
shipping was $150 to Pasadena....drive time is 4 hours round trip....
When they are ready I may try to drive out and get them and just install them there and head off to a trip to save the shipping costs...
also debating the top plate.
I ordered diamond plate for now in the rear only but kind liking the dimpled too....
I went with WK angled with no plates. Looks great!!! Best decision for my needs and still very functional. Angle looks good and still is a good enough step. Debated a lot on the rear top plate and decided if I wanted it later it is very easy to add (can buy separate) with clamps, but if you get at the start and take it off you have welded brackets showing. Just FYI, I tried putting some anti slide step tape and then took that off because it was always catching the my calf when getting out of the LC. Kept the small piece on the back step part for now.I have 3 kids as well (12 and under now )and went with flat with diamond plate. Mine are Budbuilt but that part doesn't matter.

Top plate I could go either way. Top plate traps a lotta mud/dirt, but that's also mud/dirt that woulda ended up spraying onto the doors. Young kids i could see a little foot getting stuck especially with angled, but never actually known anybody who complained.
With the anti-slip tape, entry is much easier than before. Since I have not tried the 0 degree, I don't have anything to compare. Now, I can step up on the slider and plop down in the seat without feeling like I am climbing a mountain.nice

Could be wrong but believe the LX had illuminated running boards and the LC did not.What's a good fuse to tap to trigger the LEDs under the sliders? From slee: The LED Light kit is wired into the existing circuit for the running board lights if vehicle is so equipped. The shop that installed my sliders used a source only triggered when the driver door is opened.
Does the LC200 come equipped with illuminated running boards?
