Yes, it is only 4 bolts. You will need to drill 4 holes.

David,

You say "both doors" -- if your transmode has more than the standard side entry door, the step install on the second may be an issue, depending upon where it is located.
Do you have pictures?

It's hard to do better than the Ragusa aluminum entry step.  A perfect part.  4 bolts to install, not rocket science.  You should get them.

David,

I am not positive where you would want the step in relation to the body frame -- but it looks like the rear door step might be as simple as the regular door.
Here is a shot of the frame in that area -- just not sure where the angle comes off and how that would affect the step location.
