As above, want to get these done by the end of the summer. Question is where do i get them? How hard are the old ones to remove? How do i go about fitting the new ones?

Cheers

sills are 23 quid each. you cut/remove the old sill with an air chisel/grinder. attach the new one buy welding clamp and once happy with the fit weld it in place. stonechip and then spray body colour.

most renault sills have a white rough textured anti stone chip finish under the paint

think all 3 door sills are the same but will be easy to adjust the flair

You can see where there is a distinct curve in the sills where they follow the flare of the arch. My old 1.2 was straight front to back, as said though, may be modify-able.

On another point didnt bish used to have rsi skirts on his old valver? Maybe he had to bodge them to fit.

Yeah, I just got some of those sills, look OK, but will see when it comes to fitting them.

As said, will need cutting to suit the flared arch.
Will let you know how I get on.

The skirts need modifying to fit, you have to cut an inch off the end.
