mikeyb10supra Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Hey Guys For those of you that have fit aftermarket door sills, did you remove the black plastic trim first or just stick the sill to the plastic?? Cheers Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4RK RZ Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Is it my sill mate? - Ive posted fitting instructions on the thread if it is 1) Remove original Sills by pulling upwards gradualy - the white clips that hold the sills in place will pop out. It should be possble to push the original sills (when in place) to the left/right and slide them off these clips but to be honest I found this hard to do. Pulling upwards from one side seemed to do the trick easily. 2) Use pliers to pull the white clips UPWARDS form the bodywork. Remove all of plastic clips. 3) Now you can see how dirty your sills are !!! Wash down and use T-cut to gently remove any ground in dirt. Please DO NOT use T-cut / polish on any area where the sticky pads will affix to (but sill make sure they are free from dust/grease) 4) The upper thin bent edge fits under the door rubber as the original plastic did. Peal back the white protective plastic from this top edge. DONT USE A KNIFE - USE YOUR FINGERS TO PEEL BACK 5) Peal off the RED covers from the FOAM tape stuck to the sills. 6) LOCATION: Locate the sill so each end covers just past the outer holes where the white clips were located. This is the flattest part of the sill and will ensure that you gain best adheasive quality. Place the top thin fold under the rubber and then lower the front down to make contact. When in place use a cloth to push down (CAREFULLY) where the pads are located - do not press on really hard or you will dint the sill ! Leave for a while (or do the other side) as the adheasive tape becomes stronger after a time. Remove the rest of the protective white film + any sticky patches with a soft cloth . Thats the instructions for fitting the Sills I have made Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
