    Hi copencat,

    you could also try the online-shop of a former Daihatsu dealer in Germany:

    Kiessetz & Schmidt (click me)

    The door sills ar listed, so they could be available.

    Lol you'll be burning through your hard earned if you're a anything like me!

    Having rechecked the Customs & Excise website it seems anything under £135 wont attract a customs charge but it will still be liable to an import tax if from outside the EU.

    I've imported 2 things from Japan so far & not had to pay import tax. But my 3rd item I've been waiting for is currently held in customs today according to the online tracker :mad:

    The sills for sale from Germany seem expensive compared to the Japanese ones but you could end up paying more for Japanese ones with tax's & postage on top :think:

    yeah i thought the same - but yeah... do i take the risk of tax and postage?

    plus less of a wait! I think not waiting is one of the key things to keep the excitement.

    so 105 gbp vs 67 gbp....


    is it worth the risk to potentially save money... 50 each just seems so painful! and definitely doesnt make as much of an effect as the UE grill....
