No but I’m sooo tempted… my 5’8” internal struggle to jump in and out of my leased vehicle or pay $1000+ to upgrade … 🤔🤨

Why would you want this over fixed boards?

They hang lower than the fixed ones, not exactly good looking from the side and just more stuff that's going to break in a year or two. If they actually tucked up under the body they'd be good option but not possible on a Rivian as there is no space to tuck in.

Get the cheaper fixed ones or go for the more expensive rock sliders.

I just had a set installed on my R1S and they seem to be working as advertised. Initial thoughts:

- I live in Chicago, and Hansshow shipped them at no cost. It did take almost two months to get them, due to some delays with the freight forwarding, but they credited me $50 for my troubles ... which was a nice gesture.
- Solid build, high quality. Actuators are silent.
- There is a companion app that connects via bluetooth that allows manual operation, locking them in position, etc.
- I paid a local shop to install it, took 4 hours with no issues.
- Attached a few pics and a video. I had just washed the truck, so the stuff reflecting in the video is water droplets.

What did the local shop charge you for installation

$500 (4 hours x $125) ... note, when the 12v battery is reconnected, it takes several hours for all of the various systems to reboot and all of the diagnostics to clear.
