Does this interfere with a trailer hitch?

Corner steps mount at the outer rear corners, so hitch clearance depends on your hitch receiver style. Test-fit or measure your setup before finalizing installation.

Can I paint this before installing it?

Yes. Sand and prep the surface, then paint with your choice of automotive primer and topcoat. Let paint cure fully before mounting.

What fasteners do I need?

Assembly uses factory mounting points. Confirm your hardware kit with the vehicle service manual or your installer — this step may ship without fasteners included.
