Integrated Running Board Removal - 2020 HE

[NorTexLC]

Does anyone have integrated running boards like this on their 200 series and have you taken them off? I am thinking about removing mine to replace with more stout running boards, but it looks like I would need to replace with new sills. Sounds expensive.

No HE 200 series came with running boards from the factory. My 2021 base model has running boards but not color matched/moulded to the body. Also mine are much easier to remove. South East Toyota add on??

Ouch. What a crazy idea to do it. Do they do it at port, dealer, or they manage to order them like this from the factory? Completely nuts. Wish they put something actually useful, like, dunno.... rear locker

@NorTexLC You got the window sticker?

Yup SET and GST are Mafia Distributors. Wish more people would know about them and not buy from them. They ruin everything, from those junk fender flares to these running boards

No window sticker and happy I didn't get fancy fender flares. I also have a 2006 100 series that got the GST treatment. Flares and running boards came off on day 1. Only moderate benefit I did get was LED turn signals on the mirrors. That's about it. I am hoping they didn't cut to get the running boards on this 200 series.

Clearly in the market for some painted door sills then too if the boards need to come off...
