Default Amp powerstep regrets?

Anyone regret getting the powersteps? Been back and forth about getting them and just curious if anyone doesn't like certain things about them.

One of the best mods I did on my 2014. I was planning on getting Amps for my 2017 but the running boards that came on it block a lot of mud and water from getting slung down the sides of my truck. The Amps look better, because you can barely see them and they make easier to get in and out of the truck than with fixed running boards. Unfortunately my truck slings too much crap down the sides so I need the protection from the stock running boards.

Best mod to date. Have had them on 3 trucks now. I wish I would have made the jump to amps sooner is my only regret. Do it you will not be disappointed. Also Keith at autoplicity had the best prices when I was shopping a few months back, send him a PM to get a quote

Mine were fairly easy, the hardest part for me was getting the screws to line up in the sliding receiver nuts on the underside of the running boards. Better eyesight and lighting probably would have helped. I opted for the pass through connector from my OBDII port, made the installation much faster.

Took longer to route the wiring harness so that it would be oem like clean than It did to bolt them on.
