Side Step Installation Instructions

Model: Kia Sorento MK 2 - Years 2009-2014
Part: Body

Remove the clips along the edge of the wheel arch to take off the splash guard. Next, remove the side skirt (screws and clips) and also take out the plastic plugs from the bodywork. Insert the brackets with captive pins and attach the plates. Now, apply the wavy reinforcement plate for the side step and complete the installation by drilling holes where the plugs will be inserted, initially securing the step with double-sided tape and finally tightening all the fixing screws. The new side steps will give a much more appealing look.
