STORM 2 0 Posted April 17, 2012 failed MOT due to corroded rear aspect of offside sill - anyone got any lying around or knows somewhere to source them? Do VW still sell them? Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jon_vr6 1 Posted April 17, 2012 vw sell them fella as a repair section Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
STORM 2 0 Posted April 17, 2012 (edited) hi Jon - thanks for that - most of the corrosion is toward the rear of the sill as it becomes the rear wheels arch - am I correct in thinking this is not an available part? Anyone with ETKA, can they tell me what part number is on MG[8], SG[09], illustration [142]? cheers see attached ETKA picture from somewhere else on forum! etka.pdf Edited April 17, 2012 by STORM 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

STORM 2 0 Posted April 17, 2012 Got these..? Pretty much full length sill sections. Hi Stuey Are these the middle box sections? (see part 12 in the ETKA photo) Can you tell me what length they are? cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StueyB 0 Posted April 17, 2012 Yep they are the part 12's in the ETKA picture and they are as long as I could possibly cut out from the shell so at least the same as repair panel size if not bigger/longer. Cut throw to the thin floor of the car so you have all the sill metal to work with. Up for £35 each. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stonejag 10 Posted April 17, 2012 Doh, beat me to it Sorry for the brief hijack - do you have a part # and description for item 6 in that pic? I definitely need both front sections but not sure about the inner bit... Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stonejag 10 Posted April 18, 2012 Top man, cheers :) In my defence that's the first time it's been posted here... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
STORM 2 0 Posted April 19, 2012 cheers Stuey, but most of my corrosion is in the end part where it forms the rear wheel arch, so I'm looking at patch welding or a new whole rear wing Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
