seeking a tool source

I'll bet that someone here has one of the "tire step" things that consists of a strap that goes around the tire from the inside and has a step attached that rests against the tire on the outboard side. Being 70 yrs. old and still wanting to do as much of my own maintenance as possible, my '07 150 4X is just a scosh too tall to be comfortable. I used to see them advertised, but it's been quite a while. Step stools get unstable when leaning in, so I'm hoping someone here can point me in the right direction. Thx.

Cool

Thank you. I guess I should have known that Amazon would have them available. I just had not seen them in ads lately, so I thought they might have been banned by some gov't agency or other.

Obviously, I wasn't looking very seriously, and I'll only need 2/3 of the capacity, but thanks for the concern on that front.
