Hello all, it's been a while I've visited this board.

my question: have Williams replacement sills become unobtainable? My Renault garage contact says he can't find any of them available within Europe....

I think everyone that has had their sills replaced have just got lower spec pattern parts as they're easily obtainable, cheap & no real extra effort to modify them to fit

Take a picture BEFORE replacement. Print it too. Make sure they understand how to modify it to fir the rear arch properly...they re NOT the same as 1.2 poverty spec.

If you see here:

http://www.onlinecarparts.co.uk/car-brands/spare-parts-renault/clio-b-c57-5-357/2130/10255/side-cross-member.html

These guys list the 5 door as a C57M chassis type: WROOOONG

They don't know the difference. C57M is 3 door only and wide arch.

Buyer beware!
