Retractable Running Boards

Does anyone make these for our GLE? The factory type ones are no of any use.

As I recall, they come on the Maybach that appears to be the same Chassis so that might be a source. Other than that it’s doubtful that there are any AM.

Your Mercedes Dealer should be able to tell you if they are available to order OEM Maybach boards. The complication might be that they would need a Maybach Serial Number to look them up. Then installation would be the next issue if they are even available this early in the cycle.

I also doubt the mounting locations are present in the regular GLE, and certainly not the electrical interface..
