    Thanks Eddy, pretty keen on them. Do you know if they increase the width of the car at all, or not really. I am guessing not, the bottom does sit pretty narrow but thought I would ask in case...

    So many options make it difficult to choose!

    Without seeing the various sliders/steps fitted it can be hard to determine which best match my requirements, so the best option is to ask the AULRO brains trust. Hi all!

    My requirements, in descending order of priority for our 2016 D4 are:
    1. Protection from errant doors and trolleys in car parks, even if that means leaving my car parked at off-road height,
    2. Easier access for elderly relatives even at access height, and
    3. Sill protection if we ever venture into rough terrain during our travels. Not planned, but you never know.

    The LR side steps, and cheap knockoffs, seem like they would cover #1 & #2, but of course not #3.
    Most of the available rocksliders seem to address #2 & #3, if fitted with a step plate and maybe wider standoffs, but I can't tell how they might manage #1.

    Any suggestions please?

    Dave, I tried to capture this in a photo earlier in this thread.
    Mine protrude just enough to protect the doors, more so at offroad height.

    Cheers,
