    These are what the factory side steps look like on my 13 TX edition.

    Any manufacturer markings or part numbers underneath? Or on the mounting brackets?

    Check here. I had some God knows what brand tube steps on my truck when I bought it. I found replacement pads by pulling one off and measuring the spacing between the mounting pegs and reading item descriptions. Pay particular attention to whether you have 3”, 4”, or otherwise steps and the peg spacing.

    2013 Texas Edition here as well and those are the same steps I have. The pads on mine are cracking badly this summer. I'll be replacing with sliders soon.

    Would you be willing to sell the pads that are still in decent shape? That is if they can come off. Can you please post a picture of your steps.

    Most people’s experience is they break on removal. Plastic just takes a beating in the sun. Mine shed half their pegs immediately on removal. And some of the pegs that stayed in the tube steps ripped holes in the pads.

    I would, but I don't think any are in decent shape. I'll snag a pic here in a bit.

    Front passenger is the only one not broken (yet).

    Bryan...thanks for posting these. I had a friend over last night that used to work for Toyota. He thinks that these are Gulf States installed step bars, possibly made by Westin. Now to find the pads. Please LMK if you want to part with your one intact pad (or the whole set when you upgrade). Thanks again.

    Don't see any reason I'll need them when I get sliders put on, but I'll let you know.

    Need to work with @Bigdaddy4760 to get a timeline for that ;).

    My 2003 DC had Westin side steps on it when I bought the truck in 2017, and I gave them to the buyer of the 2001 I was replacing. The pads on yours look similar, @TXRSSS, although my aftermarket ones had the Westin company name on them and appeared (at least on the Gen 1 version) to have more scallop in the cutout for the pad. Worth checking with Westin to see if they think yours were made by them and replacement pad options are available.
