Question:
Carr Custom-Fit Side Step - Hoop II - Black Powder Coated Aluminum - 7inch Step WILL THESE SIDE STEPS FIT OUR 2025 MB AWD SPRINTER W/O ANY OTHER TYPE OF STEP BAR... IN OTHER WORDS WILL THEY FIT ALONE TO ALLOW BETTER ACCESS TO THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES OF THE VEHICLE W/O ANY MODIFICATION TO VEHICLE? IN PICS THEY APPEAR TO BE ATTACHED TO AN EXISTING ADD ON BAR. PLEASE ADVISE BEFORE I PURCHASE THEM.

Hey EJ, thanks for reaching out!
The Carr Custom-Fit Side Step - Hoop II # CAR89MR will require drilling for the installation as these are universal steps. Even the Romik Connect RPD-C Running Boards # RMK43FR that come with custom brackets will require some drilling so it looks like you'll need to do some slight modification either way.
Are you planning on installing this on your own, or having a shop install it for you?

Hey EJ, did you decide to go ahead with the installation of the side steps? I'm curious to know how it went, as it could help others who are considering similar modifications.
