    Has anyone added side steps to there nightshade limited model ? I am not looking for the retractable but more or less the predator or rough country i ordered the rough country but they do not work for the limited , i found this stock photo of a limited nightshade with the NFAB steps . Has anyone found any that work with the limited ?

    I am having NFab bars put on next week. They are from Toyota and I have been told they fit my 4Runner. I have the 2019 Nightshade. It has been a PAIN trying to find some that fit and did not look to much like they were factory made. These bars have been on back order since April at our local Toyota dealership. They finally came in so I am beyond excited and ready to have the pit on! Part# is T1164RL if that helps. If you need or want pictures after they are installed, let me know

    How did your install go? Would love to see pics if you have them. I'm thinking about these for my 2021 nightshade.

    I installed the NFab steps on my 2020 nightshade limited 4runner and love them! Easy install, well as easy as it could be without having a lift at the time and crawling under the truck. Getting bigger tires and smaller wheels soon!

    I am going to order the nfabs. They look great and dont take up allot of space, height. I had some on my Chevy truck. Worked well for the vertically challenged.

    I have a 2020 nightshade. I see pics on here with the Nfab steps, which I really want. I have been told by the dealer that only the OEM running boards work on the nightshade because of the lower trim skirt and that the NFabs would only work on a regular limited. According to the pics on here, they work... Thoughts?

    I can believe it. After they told me there were no mud flaps for the nightshade, I can believe it.
    I guess a dealership is the next to ask/

    N Fab just emailed me and said this "N-fab has never directly test fitted this product to the vehicle. You would need to ensure your vehicle has the Limited style cladding that this step system accommodates."

    They have a set that is specific to the Limited/Nightshade. That’s what I ordered and as you can see, they fit just fine. Not all of there versions for the Limited so make sure to select the correct ones.

    Thanks, both of you! Is the cladding different on the nightshade vs limited? Jemplyr77, nothing had to be removed or modified to put those on?

    Dealer wants to sell you a set of OEM running boards. What they don't know or don't want to know would fill volumes.

    That is the same part number that someone put on an earlier post about the Nfabs for the nightshade. Looks like we might have a winner.

    Yes, the limited and nightshade both have cladding that is lower this the steps need a longer bracket to clear.

    I honestly cannot remember and it has been quite some time, but they are gloss black which is what I wanted to match the gloss black nightshade wheels.

    Just checked. You can get them in textured black too. Just drop the “gb” from the part number.

    Old thread. I put the Nfabs on a while ago.. Work great, easily installed. Just use a damn torque wrench as required. Dewalt hand held impact does not torque nearly where it needs to be.

    Sure. I normally order Toyota OEM parts Online and pick up locally discounted about 35% at dealerships.

    Fits both front and back. Made some corrections after initial installation. My bad.
