Question:

Hi. I am interested in the Westin Running boards you have on your install video 27-6620. I see they also come in 27-6120 and 27-6125. Whats the difference? I have a 2011 Chevy Traverse LS and was interested in the black 27-6125, but a reviewer said they werent aluminum at all. Please advise. Also, do I still need the 27-1835 kit or does it come with it? Thanks.

The Westin Tube Steps part # 27-6125-1835 that you referenced have been confirmed to fit your 2011 Chevy Traverse and come with all of the needed install hardware.

The difference between the part # 27-6120 and the part # 27-6125 is the color. The # 27-6125 is all black and the # 27-6120 has silver trim. You should note that both of these do not have the install kits that come with them. That is why the part numbers are shorter than the first one I referenced. With either of these two part numbers you would need the hardware kit part # 27-1835 as well.

I attached an install video for you to check out as well.

These are aluminum boards but do have some components of the steps that are rubber such as the grips for where you would step to increase traction.
