Does anyone have Japanese Sidesteps on their 70?

I want to add rock sliders to my KZJ78, and ran across these side steps in Japan. Anyone ever seen these or running them on their 70 series?

Mate, these are not rock sliders. They are footsteps. The "rocks" will just bend and deform the mounting brackets in an instant. (my 100kg of Aussie beef can bend them!)
There are some pretty decent options available for other 75 series variants that can very easily be shortened to suit the length you may be after.

I have the OEM steps on my 2015 76 wagon. I dont think that image is of an OEM product. And like the previous poster said, it won't be a true protector for the side of the vehicle as the mounts are not strong enough and not mounted to the frame.
 
You don't want those like @Combat Wombat said. Those just bolt onto the existing spot which is super weak. Go shop at one of the many vendors who sell sliders, measure and weld to frame or use u bolts if welding isn't your prerogative.
