Thanks for the input. Here's a couple of pics of the boards I bought.

yep, they are the same as mine. You will need to remove and drill the small panel infront on the front doors (below the side vents) and install a bracket behind them to ensure the front mudflap is secure. Did you get the brackets with the boards?
for the rest you will need to bolt them on to existing mounting points, some of which are quite hard to reach, e.g behind the wheel arch covers etc. I did mine myself in a couple of hours with standard tools and had not worked on a car before (only bikes), so it is a basic but rather annoying job. One problem I faced was that I discovered the previous owner had grounded it on a rock or such, and one of the underside mounting positions was not straight. I had to bend the Boards strut slightly to make them sit straight as that was the easiest option. but you would never notice.
gazellio: I have the same issue, my wife managed to crunch the passenger side board against a post, but I believe they only come complete and as a pair. I dont think you can just buy the trim etc. I was considering the bar instead of the board, but it doesnt look too safe for use an step which I need.
