    Yes I did. They are in transit and they have a few more in stock right now different part number than the 2015's and they are different slightly due to different frame. I bought direct from N-fab they have tremendous customer support as well, highly recommended from me. I will post pics once mine are installed.

    Hardened bolts would be just as strong if 4 per connection. (I custom fab and weld metal for a living for almost 30 yrs)

    I would not want the electric ones in a cold climate either. Most people I've met around here disable them for winter.

    well that's good to know...given its pretty damn cold up here in the great white north lol.

    I'll need to look into the others. They are certainly much nicer on the wallet.

    Don't need welded sliders unless off roading or using them to jack up the vehicle.

    I've been going back and forth between steps, sliders etc. Don't like the look, but hate door dings more. No matter where I park I still get em

    I just love the Toyota stock "running boards"... they are FLAT, and made outta aluminum and are plastic covered to match the bed covering.... I've had them 10 yrs on my '06 and they are great.... when washing the truck...U stand on them and no sweat man... round chrome bars that have soap on them might be deadly to an old guy trying to wash his roof.... PS.. they protect the paint 100%...!!

    I've got a '16 coming in 2 days... gonna have the same running boards put on it.... no off roading here... just need to wash the roof ... and they really protect the side of the truck from rocks and crud.... 10 yrs has proven that to me... If you got the roof racks...you might like these also... just to stand on while tying down yer canoe...etc...

    Go for it men...!! (and ladies)...!!
