#1 Outer Sill Repair Panels

I need to get some work done inside my sills - near the rear. The sills themselves are basically OK and rather than remove the entire sill it would be easier to remove about 18" of the rear section.

Can you get repair sections for the rear section of the outer sills - I guess 18" to 2 feet long.

I have searched the Robey site and nothing comes up.

Cheers

Nothing comes up because you shouldn't patch sills. Just replace the panel and use the opportunity to check and refurbish the entire exposed box section it's not much more work and saves you a tricky uneven transverse weld and light lines that will be very cruel in horizontal reflections.

Thanks for that advice - nevertheless before I can make any decisions I still need to know if such panels are made and by whom so if anyone has heard of any please post up a link.

Cheers
