How do you know if stuff is really OEM?
I've seen some comments on here that indicate it just means the manufacturer can make some parts for LR but not necessarily this part. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/272220480193?_tr...EBIDX%3AIT I'm thinking about the above which would save me £100+ over genuine for my 2016 but I am determined not to go down the aftermarket road for them Rob 1993 200tdi 90 hard-top 1998 300tdi 90 soft-top 2016 2.2 XS 90 hard-top (sold) |

I bought a pair of genuine XS sidesteps recently, they have to be bought separately, & are not Britpart, they have chequreplate top. left side p.n. LR029297, right side p.n. LR029295, same as original option '048AP".

Take the end caps off and dinitrol inside the whole tube then get some stone chip and do the underneath of the tube where they get most abuse and brackets then they shouldn't desolve in front of your eyes like they normally do Ray

Need to look at mine too, they rot and you'd barely even know if you don't check.
