Door sill protectors
« on: October 18, 2010, 08:30:29 pm »
Has anyone replaced the door sill protectors in their Gti? Noticed mine have White worm both sides so they will be on my replacement list now, any idea on part numbers & price for them?
Cheers!

3door or 5door?  (for the correct part numbers).

I had one replaced by the stealer - can't even tell.  They are basically just self adhesive foils.

How do you take them off? I have damage on the drivers' side one from when I bought the car and never got round to sorting it out.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

I suppose if you order a new one, you'll see exactly where the adhesive is.  :P  Unfortunately, the ETKA images are very poor!

Hmmmm . . . I can only find the numbers for the poverty-spec Golfs and the 'Goal' special edition - sorry. :ashamed:  Probably best just to go to your local stealer.

Which side do you want? 

Seems to depend on Vin number.
