Awesome, thanks for the response, so if everything just self taps into the new sill, are there reference points on the replacement panel to show where they go, or is the old panel used for reference? Any idea?
Ill be ordering all the new fittings soon.

Thanks for that, but it looks like they're not using the part I'm talking about anyway.
Im talking about parts 8 and 9 here:
I wanted to reuse that instead of just glueing the skirt on, but maybe I'll just end up leaving it out.

Fitting part 9 would have to be perfect or the skirts wouldnt sit correcty. OCD would kick in :scared: :scared:

Yeah exactly, that's why I was hoping there is a version of the sills pre drilled or at least marked for the screws, it would be near impossible to get it right without.
