Been looking for quite sometime to pick up a used sliding door step. Have yet to find anything. Has anyone out there ever made their own? Got any pictures/plans?

| okay well personally i much more preffer the rounded ones. maybe i am just biased thinking 71 is the best year for the bay windows. not to say 72-79's are ugly hahaha no way at all i just wish they wouldnt have straightened them out. |

Guess I should have been clearer with the question. I was referring to the sliding door accessory step. I have the blade style stock 72 bumpers and I prefer the look of those over the later style....

| I made a set out of tubing from an aluminum bakers rack and some aluminum stair tread theyre very sturdy but I had to tig weld them together and it took alot of time. wish I had pics for ya. If you are not an experienced welder I wouldn't attempt to make them yourself. |

| While web surfing i came across a website in the UK that had the side steps with a wood step, it was a metal frame but the step was wood... it looked really cool. But since then i cannot for the life of me find that website again. |
