The trim on my car is short and the steps come with extra length to protect the steps and look neater, I had front mud flaps fitted and they have to be changed to fit the extra length cover. |

Did you get the extra protection bits of plastic, and when you ordered did you give them all the specs of your car? |

I have got the bits all separate. On TOPIX, its the kit listed for my car and the plastic trim doesnt match the car.

SV man, they do NOT make the part you're looking for, unfortunately... That panel is only made for the standard body type NOT the SVO kit sir... |

I think you’ll need the standard panel with the cut out, as the step when retracted sits into this recess, which your SV panel may not have? |

thinking outside the box here, what about cutting a little bit off the step where it would recess into the trim... ... - .- -.

From what I spotted online, with the SV trim the step sits almost on top of it. The standard trim just adds a bit to blend it in more.

There is no need to cut anything as they can move on the fixings forward /backwards.

Another option is use some of the bits that are for the RRS.
