Here are the AMP powersteps on 2nd Gen. I still think it was one of the better purchases I've made because of the added lift on my truck and my 5yr old and 3yr old can climb in and out of the back.

I did not like the appearance of the original stepboards and opted for the longer/flatter look of the stepboard with the stainless steel trim. The upgraded board(s) didnt change any of the gaps and I think it looks much cleaner because it extends from front fender to rear fender and looks slimmer.

Sucks that the manufacturer doesnt allow it to be an upgrade to the Tacoma kit and requires a separate purchase of the S/S boards.

I've had the kit installed for about 4 years now and live in a moderate climate with no winter salt/etc...

I have had a part fail (long pinion gear looking thing) that rendered the steps useless. Without the boards dropping down, i missed them everytime i had to enter/exit my truck. Replacement part was $40 and i had the boards working again in 30 mins.

Here's some pics...

I’ve never seen them thin like that on a Tacoma., they are getting better, but still shows way more than in other trucks.
