I'm not at home to measure, but there is still a decent amount of clearance.  I take my van through automatic car washes often, haven't ever had an issue.

Though I will say the instructions for where to attach the running boards were totally bogus...  I think the passenger version had many more obstacles for the supports, so I had to just adjust and find appropriate places to mount.

Nope, the running board starts just behind the mudflaps.  I can't remember if I removed them during installation or not, they are just held on with a couple screws....   but the mudflaps are there.

I've uploaded a video here: https://youtu.be/3NmZ0z3isJI

We are going to have a removable table made/installed for roadtrips.
