Water seeps in around guards during water / mud crossings. Removed them, no further issues.

 

This is why I yanked mine.

 

Here is a substandard photo, but I think you get a good idea.
Just make sure you mask well. I unstrapped my door and let it swing forward. I hung a drop cloth over it and covering the inside cab. Then I edged the area w/ masking tape and paper.

 

How much are you paying for the black plastic ones from the dealership?

 

I got mine from the dealer for $22 tax in for my 2 door

 

I got mine off e bay, i think for about $14 then the shipping which made it like $30 or more.
welcome to paying additional shipping living in Canada. watch good deals become bad deals.
lol

 

I was going to ask about leaks in water crossings? i got the stainless steel ones and are great. but i noticed they dont seal on the door seals. went out on a day trip and very dusty and it let alot of dust in. considering ripping off but then you can see where the paint has rubbed off from constant scuffing. Any on got a good solution that seals ? possible pics parts etc?
