I love the look of the running boards but they seem to stick out kinda far. I wish I could find these in the United States. All the nice looking boards are not available here. Can you take a picture along side the vehicle to show how far they stick out from the tires. Thanks.

I've been considering the molded steps also, because my wife always complains when she's getting in that it's too high. (She drives a Prius, we all have our cross to bear.)

Does anyone know if the Mopar Molded steps are compatible with the molded splash guards? It looks like they taper and wouldn't interfere, but it's tough to tell from the photos, and my dealer doesn't stock them, it's a special order.

I'm also in market for side steps. 4'10" wife having too much trouble getting in.

I'm also interested in seeing something from Mopar, few pictures of this installed would be nice - Running Board, Molded - 82212685AB | Mopar

Does Mopar offer the tube kind (nerf bars?). Not sure which kind looks better.

I tried talking to my parts department at Jeep and after about 30 mins and 2 guys trying to find stuff in the system I gave up and figured I'd have to search it myself. They said no tube bar type steps yet for 2014 from Mopar. 2014 has been out for a year almost? May have to look at aftermarket stuff and do it myself in the spring.

As a follow-up, I decided to buy the Mopar running boards, and they seem to integrate well with the rest of the GC. Here are a couple photos from various angles:









They seem to work well with the Black/silver theme of the GC. Your mileage may vary... Jeep's not too dirty, but it's winter, so there's always some salt on the roads, it's only clean until I drive it! Plus, my wife actually steps on the running board to get in! Who knew that was going to happen?

Cheers,
Ron

They look good! Wanna get them soon and Hope they are as sturdy as the tubular ones or rock rails..
Are they wide enough to actually use as a step and protect the door from stupid parking lot door dingers?

They would be torn off, or similar, or worse.

You suffer from Vertical Camera Syndrome.
I can help, this needs to be cured. This doubly applies to any video you are shooting with your phone.
