You can lift the the door panel after you remove all the fasteners and get to the 3 nuts and electrical connector

I'm not sure if bolts and nuts can be used for the brackets.
I didn't even try.
I have an threaded insert installer, so that's what I did.

Interesting. Not even sure what that is or where I could acquire one but I'll have to look into it. Found a pair of running boards for 300

I did that until I dropped a nut in the door panel.

I’m aware of variety of blind nuts but I’m not familiar with that situation. Never looked under there.

Took SISU in for a tire balance and rotation.
I do this every other oil change.
All is well

One thing I'm really not clear on here is how does the door panel play into the running boards?

Your post about running boards and the other post about someone’s broken mirror. The info kind of got mixed up between the 2 different issues.
If you want to ask questions about the running boards, you should start a new thread in the appropriate forum.
This section forum is just a place to tell “What you did today”. Kind of like a diary section.
