Thanks for an excellent tutorial. With this info, I was able to replace the inserts on my X166. The process is exactly the same as your W166. My X166 has leds integrated into the running board. The hardest part was trying to unplug the wire. I found that I had to soak the connector with WD40 for 5 - 10 minutes before trying to unplug.

Those electrical clips were BRUTAL. I wish I took the time to soak them

To reinstall the aluminum into the step I had to flex it in the middle and insert it on both sides. Took me a minute to figure that out.

Tracklife- Do you know if you can get the rubber non skid inserts for the running boards? I have 2015 GL with running boards that cleaned up really nicely but one rubber bump came out during cleaning. It was not one of the securing ones with the washer on the bottom side..

Hi do I have to remove the whole step to replace just the silver plastic part? I have 2018 gls 550.

If it looks the same as this, I guess so

What did you use as an adhesive to reattach the rubber inserts?
@TeamAteem Жыл бұрын
Nothing, there isn't any adhesive holding them in

Little late Question but: are there any parts glued or is it always just a clip mechanism? cause my local dealer said that the actual aluminium part is glued to the plastic...
@GigaLP4 жыл бұрын
and do you have any pictures of how it looks wrapped? or did it work and are you happy with it?
@TeamAteem4 жыл бұрын
No glue, if you give me a message on Instagram @egyptianlad I can send pics, they turned out great

Hi do you know if the w167 gle is the same process to remove ?
@TeamAteem2 жыл бұрын
Not sure, but likely to be similar

Cheers for the reply, I take it you can't remove the metal top without having to running the whole board ?
@TeamAteem2 жыл бұрын
I don't see any other way to remove the metal without taking the running board off

I have a customer who refused to pay an invoice accusing me of causing this kind of corrosio. How would I go about enhancing it? Or is there no solution.

You can rub them back with steel wool but the best solution is either repaint or wrap

High heat silicone aluminum color on the running board , they spread all over black marine sand, repeat.

I am going to power coat the plate, should last 4 times longer. What about the reinstall?

Nice. If you can remove it, reinstall will be simple 💪🏽

How much powder coating will it cost if you don't mind?
