They are made by MorRyde, and they are about $200-300 each. You can order them from the manufacturer. The installation is not too bad, but some mechanics with no experience may end up spending 6 or more hours on it. With some preparation, it took me 3 hours for the driver side, and 6 or maybe 8 hours for the passenger side (the exhaust was in the way). There are a few threads on this on this forum, and I think you will find them to be informative.

I'm fortunate to live within a few miles of the MorRyde plant, and was able to get my rubber replacement parts quick and cheap. The installation was done at a large, local fleet truck service center who had the experience and knowledge of the product to do a proper installation. If you're not comfortable with a DIY install, I would recommend local experts in the fleet truck service field.
