You can buy the outer sill for £80 and have the inside folded for next to nothing. plus it'll be brand new!

They are worth £250 top! You gotta laugh though

at least they have heater tubes in them :roll: the person that fitted my sills forgot to put them back in, most likely on purpose :evil: I guess there's no way round this now..

I bet theyre on for another 4!

Marko, if you can run so mig wire or similar down there, you might be able to tape it to some card tube and pull that down. Similar to the tube used on a beetle to defrost the windscreen. It would get you to the foot well vents

thanks for the tip, I wondered if some of that flexi tube stuff but fit too but it all depends what has gone off inside the sills I guess. because I didn't do the sills/channels I have no idea how they did it.

I was a bit annoyed when I was nearing the end of the build when I went to connect the plastic tubes up under the rear seat and couldn't figure out where they went.. the penny dropped when I realized something was missing on the inner sills :( . looking back at the pics I was sent before I bought the car I saw the channels in one of the pics, I guess they never intended on fitting them back in. I do have the Eberspacher to fit at some point so that will help and to be fair it doesn't get used in the winter anyway.
