Default Side step fitting
I am looking to get some side steps as the jeep looks plain without them and was wondering if the holes are there to bolt the steps too

Mine are mounted with brackets. I only know cos I'm trying to remove them, but the bolts are proper stuck. So if you have some side steps with the brackets then the holes should be there for them (or so I would logically assume)

Dammit... all this talk of sidesteps has me thinking about taking mine off now, 'specially as the nearside one is looking so battered... also having checked tonight I reckon the sill protection is marginal
