Side steps - rust prevention
Hi
Just got my new side steps through as others are rusting through. Any recommendations re rust prevention before I (the garage) put them on? Hammerite?
Cheers

A good dose of Lanoguard would not go amiss.

If you haven’t got the old ones off yet, brace yourself
It’s great fun currently... I’m drivers side step off and stuck with one rusted bolt.

Mine were getting quite bad but I had them shot blasted and galvanised locally. I also had the side alloy strip colour coded to the car.2008 D3 HSE Stornoway Grey with Ebony Leather, towing a Coachman VIP 575
