I was wondering if any one has purchased the Thing Shop's running boards? If so are they easy to install? Do they actually function? Does anyone have any pictures? Thanks for your time.

i have a set. i don't think it would be completely fair for me to comment on installation of them, because my thing is an accapulco that had running boards from the factory. the thingshop ones are a perfect repro of the originals and installed really well on my car. i think putting them on a non-acapulco car would be a much bigger piece of work, but they should look and fit perfectly. they are very well made, really heavy gauge steel and reinforced on the bottom.
