I was never really satisfied by any of the repros. You need 2 rockers to do each side of your club cab. They overlap right by the door jamb. OEM would be great if you found someone with them not wanting $$$$$$

I did not comment before due to you looking for club cab rockers, but now that m880 shared that you can make a club cab rocker out of two regular rockers, Tabco reproduction sheet metal has treated me really well. They have rockers for around $20. http://tabcobodyparts.com/html/table_of_contents.htm

I haven't installed mine yet, but they look like really nice pieces. They're made of the same gauge metal as the factory used.

Buy 2 and splice them together just like the factory did. They mate right by the door jamb. Take a look at a crew cab next time you get a chance... Its 2 regular cab rocker panels and a special one in the middle. Pretty shoddy craftsmanship for a factory producing new vehicles but it has its cost benefits.
