Review on πŸƒ Westin Running Board Mounting Kit 27-1445 by Joshua Garris

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Good luck with your tire change

This is not a screw kit and not for beginners. It's clear Westin hasn't seen the 2007 Honda Pilot. The instructions weren't even remotely accurate, and I basically had to figure things out on my own. The instructions give 2 sets of factory holes and there are 3 on the machine. The set shows holes in places where the drill did not fit. I had to purchase additional hardware for the mounts that fit. The brackets remain. I had to cut an inch off a bracket to fit the skid plate. I had to relocate the emergency brake line and make a custom bracket. Installing planks would close the lifting points. Good luck with the tire change. The black plastic overlay is not attached anywhere, nor is it mentioned in the instructions. I had to add the brackets separately. The installation took about 4-5 hours. Very disappointed. I would have sent this kit back but I was too addicted to it and the shipping would have been terrible. I would give this product a 0 if that was an option. Very poor design, recommend finding another brand suitable for your setup.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
