My install date just got pushed back a week. I was busy today so i couldn't go to get it installed. The dealer has the part and just waiting for me to go there to get it done. I wil have pictures up when i get them installed. It is $599 for parts plus $400 to install so about under 1k with taxes and such. This is for CA. Australia's dollar is a little different than ours.

my dealer has them in and waiting for me. i just have to go in and get them installed. check a different dealer and see if they can get them. The prior week they said they don't make them? then all of a sudden it appears on their parts list and able to order. So i think they are available now. so try again or a different dealer.

I just dropped my car off at the dealer to have the running boards installed. Apparently the pictures you have posted looks nothing like the ones i am getting. The ones I'm installed looks exactly like the lexus.com website. I will post pictures up when i get them. They look nice and the parts guy said it was hard to get them and i lucked out. Supposedly the week before i asked them for it, they didn't have it available since they had many inquires about them.

will get to pick them up thursday or friday. I have some other issue with a door rattle with the ML stereo system. Unfortunately, that might take a few to figure out and fix the problem or else i would have the car back at the end of the day.

Very interested in seeing these as well!

I got quoted with the same part number about $900 part and installation.

They look really nice but doesn't look like there is a whole lot of available step on space. I can see myself toe jabbing the car unless the pictures doesn't truly show how much it sticks out after door is opened.

it looks good. you can barely notice it while the door is closed and when you open it, you can step on it nicely.

thanks they are great for us shorter people. My wife is only 4'11 and these will help a lot. They don't stand out like a sore thumb which i like. They are very low profile. until you open the door is when you definitely notice them. You can hardly tell they are even there while driving down the road.
