Installed OEM Running Boards, F/R Mudlfaps and Rubber Mats
I ordered running boards, mud flaps and rubber mat set for my new 2011 LR4 through BPUtah. Installed them today, took about 3 hours, partly due to me not being a mechanic, crazy Land Rover instructions with pictures only, no words -- and of course British engineering. For the most part, it was pretty easy, just bolted on once I figured everything out. Some cutting of the lower trim was required to fit trim back over the installed mounting brackets, but I used a Dremel to cut the trim and it worked out fine. Once installed, can't see the cuts anyway unless you are under the car. Running boards look great and are very sturdy. Is something anyone could do if you have the time and patience. Also installed front and rear mudflaps which took about an hour and a half. Front was easy, just screwed right on although it helps if you have a right angle phillips screwdriver and adjust the vehicle height. Back flaps required a mounting bracket (again instructions were less than clear), but once I figured it out it was very easy. Rubber mats were easy, fronts drop right in use existing clip; for the back you have to poke a hole in existing carpet to install a carpet retainer clip to secure rear mats; 3rd row and cargo mat just drop in. Saved $ ordering and doing these simple things myself.
