premium accessories that match its engineering standard. These running boards are precision-engineered for seamless integration with your vehicle's existing architecture, providing safe, everyday access while enhancing your GLS\/GL's visual presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt from aerospace-grade aluminium alloy with reinforced stainless steel components, these side steps combine lightweight strength with long-term durability. The thickened mounting bracket supports loads of 600–800 kg, meaning they'll handle passenger weight, luggage, or roof-rack preparation without flex or fatigue. Scratch-resistant surfaces and vibration-dampening technology ensure they remain pristine through years of daily use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires no drilling—the steps bolt directly to your chassis using existing factory attachment points. Stainless steel hardware and corrosion-resistant plating ensure performance in all climates, from coastal salt spray to winter salt roads. Backed by ISO 9001 and TS16949 certification, these are engineered components, not aftermarket compromises.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"va-grid\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"va-item\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"va-item-icon\"\u003e📦\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"va-item-name\"\u003eRunning Board Set\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"va-item-sub\"\u003eMatched pair, precision-fitted for X167\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"va-item\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"va-item-icon\"\u003e⚙️\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"va-item-name\"\u003eStainless Steel Brackets\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"va-item-sub\"\u003eThickened mounting hardware with anti-vibration\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"va-item\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"va-item-icon\"\u003e🔧\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"va-item-name\"\u003eInstallation Accessories\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"va-item-sub\"\u003eFasteners, clips, seals, and detailed user guide\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Highlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul class=\"va-hl-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight aluminium alloy with reinforced ABS and stainless steel for durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh load capacity: 600–800 kg with thickened, vibration-damping brackets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorrosion-resistant finish withstands salt, heat, acid, and seasonal exposure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScratch-resistant surface keeps steps looking factory-fresh year-round\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstallation via existing chassis holes—no drilling, no bodywork modification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision-moulded gaps and fitment eliminate rattles and misalignment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISO 9001 \u0026amp;
