If you are talking about nerf bars most of them use the same bolt holes that are used to attach the cab to the frame.

DONT DO IT !!!! thats just my opinion, if you dont need them dont put em on, i dont think they do anything for the looks of the truck.

Do It! It Looks great on the 4x4 1500. I purchased solid Stainless steel oval running boards for my 06' "Sport" 4x4 from EBay ($180.00). They bolt right on the truck (No drilling). The biggest problem was finding a "breaker bar" to break the torque on the 4 bed bolts....
Took about 2 hours (and thats pounding a few beers in between).
Good Luck...

not sure if the 07 is the same to install as my 05 was. But if it is, tehre is 0 drilling required, there are slots hidden by black tape that the bolts go into and works slick.

I wanna take mine off after I do my leveling kit, takes away ground clearance and makes it harder to get in which is good in some cases if you catch my drift.
