Question OEM running boards

Can anyone tell me where I can get a pair of OEM BLACK LIGHTED running boards?

I have a 05 Black Eddie Bower Ex. that has the beige trim. And I wanted to swap them out for the black ones.

I know there are several aftermarket options out there but I like my lighted factory boards.

This is about the closest thing I could find.

I too have the beige ones on mine and wanted black, I just taped off the lower half of the truck and sprayed them with black bedliner. Looks good I think.

Edit: I taped off the lights too, of course. Just clean them well and spray them with bedliner or undercoating.

My running boards are like the ones on the Excursion on the right side of the pic.

I want the ones on the LEFT!

Do you have any pics of them?

How is the bedliner holding up?

Thats about all I have. It seems to be holding up fine. But I really kind of did a halfass job, and then I went and stepped on the driver side one before it was fully dry! So Its a little messed up, but I can just spray a little more over it. Really glad I did it though, the black does look a lot better.

Doom...If you find a black pair I would be interested in your current set. The dealer I bought mine from swapped the running boards and tow mirrors from mine to another Ex on the lot. So no lights for me. I like the black and would just find a means to change the color.

Maybe I am not seeing the difference in those pics but it looks like you already have the style of boards you want ? Looks like you just need to do a color change.

I'm wondering if you could use the SEM black plastic/vinyl paint/dye to change the color?

Question

Does anyone have the part number for the OEM black boards?

I think all I need is just the cover. Going to try looking at Tasca Ford.
