I've been (once again) considering fitting side steps to my 4.3 XTR. Regarding the official Toyota ones, I'm not saying that I don't like them, but they are a bit 'utility' looking and lacking in a bit of style? Saying that they'll be of good quality (?) and built to fit and do the job - one would expect.
What side steps have you fitted to a 4.3 and some photos if possible please? Thanks.

I have those genuine Toyota 'utility' side steps. Steps themselves look fine after 14 years but the support rails need some attention. If you go that route I would suggest giving the supports a good coating of Hammerite or the like prior to fitting.

I’ve always fitted OEM steps to our RAVs. Agree that some might think them bland but not me. I’ve always thought them chunky as well as being uber-practical (you can stand on them without fear of the supports bending) and extremely well made.👍👍

Yeah, having done more research throughout the day I'm leaning heavily towards OEM Toyota ones. Anyone got any to sell?!

I had no response from them, so must be sold. Cheers, apologies for my late follow up.
