Abstract: A molded running board is fabricated from a moldable material such as thermoplastic or the like and includes a main body with a lower surface, having a stiffening structure, and an upper surface to which one or more trim pieces can be attached. The main body has at least two mount members which are metal inserts molded in place with the main body, the mount members including a portion which extends beyond the main body for use to attach the running board to a vehicle. By altering the finish of the main body and/or the trim pieces, a wide variety of cosmetic appearances of the running board can be obtained without requiring different molds for the main body. Also, by standardizing the location and configuration of the portion of the mount members, the running board can be attached to different vehicles by employing suitable adaptor hardware to connect the mount members to the vehicle, again without requiring different molds for the main body.
