Nice
. Do you know what they cost new from Ford and if $90 is a good price? These will look so much better than the plastic stock ones...

nope no lights, but thats a easy aftermarket add on if you so choose.
i've been checking craigslist for over a year and lost out on a few because i was an hour too late calling on them. they go fast atleast around here.

Normally speaking, running boards have lights, steps don't, unless they've been added or are aftermarket.
And yeah, $90 bucks is a great price, even if it was $90 bucks each.

I just got the steps for only $90!
It looks like they mount on differently than the stock ones
Are there any tutorial on this?

the oem running board uses 5 backets. the steps use 3 of the 5. take running board off and use the 3 that match up with the ones on the steps. what did they come off of? only crewcab steps will work on our Ex's......

I can't speak to the 2012 year side steps you bought, but based on the picture, they do look exactly the same as the ones that work on Excursions.
What kind of problem are you having, exactly? You're sure you have the correct step for the correct side, right?
