Default Help with Rear Step Pad for a 2009

I am looking to see if anyone has tried to fit the rear step pad on a 2009....it is that black ribbed cover for the rear bumper....to protect it from scratching when taking out luggage from the trunk......MOPAR says the part is for 2001-2006.... & they do not make it anymore for the newer series..will it be a problem to install on a newer PT?

Thanks
Larry

No problem, I have put it on our 2006 & the 2008 both. Just be sure you line up the edges equally. On the 2001 - 2995 you had a indentation to line it up with which make it easier to fit it.

I put one on my 2005 'vert and it was a smart move, although my car is black so you don't notice it that much. The dealer just ordered a 2005 as the 2006 and newer are slightly different.

Cool Re: Help with Rear Step Pad for a 2009

BUT!!!!!
I you are picky like me, IT ISN'T A CLEAN FIT!

(round peg in a square hole!)
I drag my golf clubs and other stuff over the rear bumper all the time.
So, I found a customized, great fitting alternative!
I roughened the paint in the trimmed area; then went to Line-X and had them spray a bed liner on that area.
See the links...(you can even add a logo or name)
