VW Running Board Installation

Our VW Running Boards have the same bolt pattern across all VW Super Beetle model years. Please follow the directions below to achieve a perfect fit when installing your new running boards.

Step 1: Loosen all 13mm fender bolts on both front and rear fenders. This will allow movement of the fender.
Step 2: Use supplied 13mm bolts to loosely attach running board to the front and rear fenders.
Step 3: Align running board to the body and use 10mm bolts to loosely attach running board to the body.
If the 10mm bolts do not align to the body, loosen the fender bolts to allow more movement.
Step 4: Tighten 13mm bolts from the running board to the fenders.
Step 5: Position the running board all the way down on the 10mm bolts to allow the door above to move freely.
Step 6: Tighten the 10mm bolts to secure the underside of the running board.
Step 7: Tighten 13mm fender bolts while re-aligning the fender beading.
