OTA update affects bump step? And added Mud flaps.

[LSchicago]

I have had my Weathertech bump step on for about 6 weeks now. Never set off the in bumper backup sensors, until about a week ago. Then the center 2 sensors kept beeping when in reverse. So I moved the step in about 2 inches, and it no longer sends a false signal.

Was going to install my Mabett Mud flaps, but I seem to have buried them in my store move. Found the set of Muslogy mud flaps, so I installed those instead. Watched a video on an install just to get an idea which size socket I'd need. Glad I didn't follow him. That was a real hack job. Only took about 15 minutes doing them the right way with just hand tools. In the end, I think these will offer enough protection. They look good too.

No, they are Crossmax CHTS1 235/65/18's. 30" tall.

Sorry to hear that.

I avoid buying from Amazon whenever I can. Sometimes it takes longer to get my stuff, sometimes it costs a bit more, but if it's possible to avoid them I do. They're like a cancer

And I've noticed that there's a lot of stuff I can buy locally for the same price (or sometimes even less!) and encourage local businesses

It's ok, I started the business with $280. Still have $40k worth of product left after the big sell down, and money in the bank. No regrets, but I saw the writing on the wall and called it.

Does the width of that bump step block the view of the license plate any?

This is the narrow 12" one. It can block, depending on angle. The wide 23" is a no go, both for sensors and plate cover. No straight on pics of it on my 25, but here is how it looks on the 23.
