I am wanting to get some steps/sliders made up for my NGV for an upcoming trip. Mostly so I can reach the roof but also for a little protection. Really I am looking for recommendations for somone in the south east that could measure up and make me something. From what I have seen most “custom” steps / sliders for other makes are about $300-$400 do people think that’s reasonable ?

Thanks
Marc

first you are gonna have issues with legality, Does yours have side airbags?

second, being monocoque finding some where substancial will be tricky on it.

thirdly. im sorry to say any "custom" sliders that are 3-400 are gonna be complete crap.

Personally i think something one off to suit your car if you dont care about legalities your probably looking at at least doubt that.

side curtain airbags will be effected by side steps of sliders.
