T7 Side Steps

[iainH]

Hi, I need to fit side steps to my 2025 California Ocean. I reached out to VW but they don't supply. I've tried some digging with Google and I thought my luck was in when I saw pegasus4x4.com but they say their T7 multivan side steps won't fit the California. I can find lots of New Transporter solutions but these apparently won't fit a California either. Does anyone know where I can find side steps (electric or fixed) for a T7 California Ocean. The idea of folding plastic steps is not going to be a long term solution. Many thanks for any help and pointers.

Perhaps a Motability converter could help

Are Pegasus aware that the new T7 California is the same body shell and running gear as a LWB Multivan?
I would be very surprised if their steps did not fit.
The new Transporter is a totally different vehicle to the Multivan.

My mistake. Pegasus do offer Multivan side steps, but I found out they are for the T6 Multivan, not the T7. I thought the Mutivan was only a T7 thing - my mistake. Pegasus said they can't build side steps until VW make available the chassis CAD drawings, which apparently they have not.

Ah, something I haven't thought of - thanks!. Let me dig around, and I'll see what I find, and I'll feedback.

The current multi-van platform hasn’t changed since it replaced the old Caravelle in 2021 can’t see why drawings would not be available by now?

I think it is the T7 he is looking for.

I would go to a local fabricator with a laser cutter and have some made. Many of these guys have the digital measuring tools. I suspect the jacking points would be the place to mount the steps.

But the T7 Multivan California is based on the LWB Multivan which has been in production, as stated above, since 2021.
