[QUOTE="Htotheunit, post: 598699, member: 1611"] Hello, I'm undertaking a few repairs on my van (I say a few, I think it will end up as a bottom 6" replacement all the way round) and I have a question regarding the driver side sills. I have to replace the outer (I think they removed the original and replaced it with filler years ago along) however the inner sill looks pretty solid and may not need replacing. From what I understand the outer is spot welded onto the lip at the bottom of the side panel, would it be a case of cutting a small section of my floor out to access the top of the sills in order to spot weld it all toghether? I have seen the pre welded panels and the 'fake' sill panels however I'd prefer not to cut my side panel as it does seem to be in pretty good condition. Cheers! [/QUOTE]
