Re: jacking point
It depends on the state of the rest of the sill. The panels arn't cheap though for chopping up.
You could try fabricating but it needs to be made strong enough to support all the forces put through it.

Re: jacking point
im a painter in a bodyshop so i asked the panel man to have a look at it for me , not as bad as i had thought it looks as if it had been jacked up without the arm of the jack being right the way into the hole and it had bent the sill , he checked it over and apart from a 3 inch patch it was pretty solid , he welded a patch on for me and straightened it up

Re: jacking point
Ironic as when I did mine about 3 years ago the left was still available in the UK but the right had to be sourced from classicannavr6@vwheritage wrote:Cruz wrote:iirc schofileds inner sills are just vw classic ones with their markup.
