Running Boards??

[shawncav]

I just picked up a 2012 Touring. This is my 3rd pilot, I had a 06 exl, a 09 exl (that was just wrecked) and now a 12. I never had running boards. The kids could use them, and so could the wife. Which ones are the best?

The Honda versions are best. There are 3 kinds.

- Black running boards
- Black step sides
- Chrome step sides

I just bought a set of black step sides on ebay for $160 shipped. They must be blowing them out. Keep an eye out. Regular price for those kits is like $400+.

BTW: Check the bolt holes under the car. You may need a tap to chase the rusty threads. Cost me $10 at harbor freight for a metric tap & die set.

I agree the Honda ones are the best but did you get the Honda OEM black side steps or generic nerf bars? Just checked for these on e-bay and the cheapest Honda side steps are $320...

OEM black side steps. You just gotta know how to search...

$190 for chrome, $195 for black: 08L33-S9V | eBay

Oh, I see. Yes Mine is an 04 and all the 03-08 kits are interchangeable. Sorry I don't know anything about the 09+.
