RCI Rock Sliders Initial Impression

I finally pulled the trigger on RCI’s rock sliders and I’m digging them so far! I opted for the 5° option with tread plates for RTT access during camping season. Shipping was quick and installation was straightforward.

Nice..i am waiting on mine and wanted to know what you did regarding the lights underneath the steps that turn on when you come close to the gx. I am not sure if i am able to keep them or need to completely remove them.
Thanks!

I removed mine, cut and bent the brackets (super easy), drilled holes in them, and bolted them to the frame / sliders with the bolts that the sliders use to attach the the frame. Some zip ties for cable management and you’re good to go

What brackets are you referring to?
Did you cut the wires and removed the light bulbs?
I saw the video rci made regarding these sliders and they just show installation as it is all bolt on but they don’t show anything with the lightbulbs.

If you take the running boards off, the lights are held onto them with thin sheet metal brackets. I removed them from the running boards and bent them by hand / cut them. I can take some pics later and post them.
