Thank you SO MUCH! I just got done installing them (rough country). The instructions from RC are hot garbage once you get past installing the motors. Your video got me through the parts they just gloss over. A few tips - 1, Connect the wiring harness to the control module before you bolt it in. The 2 small connectors are really difficult to engage if the module is already bolted in. 2, If you remove the covers for the rear seat to floor brackets, it makes it a lot easier to elevate the carpet when running the white wire across. 3 - Bolt the steps to the motors LAST. There's no reason to have them in your way until you're done with all the wiring. This is especially helpful if you're doing the job laying on your back like me.
Thanks for the great step by step install video. Used it instead of factory directions, and installation was pretty easy. Also, thanks for the veterans' discount on the steps.
Great video. So after installing both these and the amp steps, which option which do you prefer? The price point on the rough country ( which seems to be a rebranded go rhino) is hard to beat if you can deal with the magnets.
Great video it would be great for you to do a second video just for the 2 door. It is significantly different. A few things to note. 1. The controller is different and mounts directly behind the drivers rear motor. This means that you need to install the controller before you install the read motor. Second, there is really no way to ground the door sensor to the seat belt without taking all the molding out (which is a huge pain in the 2 door). Instead you can ground it to the drivers chair. Speaking of chairs, you really need to remove the drivers and passengers chair completely in order to fish the passenger wire across the car. It's still a pain but can be done. Lastly, as directed by Motoroso, you will have a MUCH easier time tightening the four motors once everything is installed and the steps are deployed. With that said, all the work was totally worth it.
Ok just installed and everything went like this video said. I broke a magnet... Why are they so tiny instead of a larger rectangle or circle would have made more sense... Still working great and currently love them!
Even tho the amp research is more expensive and more of a hassle to install, I think I’m going to run the amps instead of this kit. Too many exposed wires. Door jams with magnets? Not ideal and definitely not clean.
Right on, all good! They’re both great products, but can’t argue with the cleaner install point. We have a few sets of the AMP steps in stock at the moment, they’re extremely hard to get (have been for 12 months). Might wanna jump on those now if you know you want them.

Nice video, uses it for my rough country steps which are identical
Thank you! Saved me a lot of time.
Wow great video!
Hi I have the Bronco with washout floors.
Those floors are removable to pass the sensor wires?

Great video! Can i purchase the 2 spacer plates or can i mount them without? Purchased a 2nd hand pair and they didnt come with the 2 spacer plates

I installed these today and also broke a magnet. Was able to macgyver it to work. Did you ever buy any other magnets?
I have a jeep wrangler and no matter what i do i cant get the door sensors to work? Any ideas what can be happening!
Thank's

*DO NOT TRY ON BRONCO RAPTOR* the VDM is in the way along with the studs for the module on the right rear
