Where can I get sill trims/kick plates for here?

[FroGTI]

I'm not interested in VW's offering as they only serve to protect the plastic sill cover - seems a bit daft to me, but anyway... what I am looking for is some kind of trim/plate to put in the red box. Can anyone advise, please?

Hello my dear French friend!
Mine is located in 'your' lovely red box and are from VW.
Get the VW 'Accessories Brochure'.

Merci, am1w Can you post some pix? I can't find them in the French accessory catalogue and the UK site doesn't give you PDF brochures. £160 seems a bit steep, but maybe they are really bonne qualité?

You can also get the R style ones from the R-line cataogue that fit there

There has been at least 2 threads on there were i have posted photos of most VWs own options including the ones fittd to the mk5.

Cheers, everyone. As usual this forum provides the answer to my every query within half an hour That second set from your scan, Neil, is what I'm after, so thanks for that. However, £100 seems really expensive for what look like bits of thick Gaffer tape. Can anyone confirm the quality?

Does anyone have any 'real' photos, i.e. not ones from accessory brochures?

They are justlike a stick on vynle.

mk5 ones




R line

Thanks, Snoopy. Good pix, but not of the model I want. I'd like the boring black ones, second down in Neil's scan.

I managed to find a PDF file in English, if anyone is interested: http://www.volkswagen-zubehoer.de/fileadmin/pdf/prospekte/englisch/zubehoer/L41774_Golf_VI_ZP%20englisch%20081208.pdf

I quite like the R line ones

Yes, they look nice, but I want ones that actually protect my sills
