Fold down steps
My 90 has a pair of fold down steps, which I have just repainted because they were looking a bit tatty. However, they still look tatty because the rubber tread is old and torn.

I thought a nice piece of chequer plate riveted on would look good and be less prone to damage. Does anybody know if they are available off the shelf, or do I get the the jig saw and drill out! 2021 Defender 110 X-Dynamic HSE D300 MHEV

I bought some cheap new ones for my TD5 from Simmonites I think. Chequer plate side steps... Oh do come on old boy! Rolling Eyes Laughing

Paddock seem to be the cheapest, I'm surprised you used the words cheap and Simmonites in the same sentence, they are rip off merchants, everything costs twice as much there! 2016 D4 HSE

Side steps + chequer plate + rain = slippery
