Although the help quite a bit to get into the car, its awkward getting out. Also, I can't take the car through a non touchless car wash. The tire cleaner motors/brushes will rub on the running boards and could damage the boards. I can only go to a touchless car wash. Replies to this message: sunburstorange (Oct 23, 2009 4:38 pm)

I was going to get them cause Chrysler will pay up to $750.00 to have them installed with a doctors note stating they are needed for medical reasons.
