Don't buy GSF ones there S**T don't fit well at all.

Mine (from GSF) fitted fine and have been on the car for around 12 years, and the seal is as good as new

Maybe they've changed supplier since I bought mine though?

Websites are so badly designed, why can't you just type "door plates" in so it comes up with a list you can pick and chose from? GSF, BigBoysToys and VolksBits are all the same.

Taken to looking on eBay now..... :rolleyes:

Not really, fitting them doesn't stop anyone from having a go! and when they do, it leaves the door far more butchered than if it had non fitted, the plates are only any good to cover up cosmetically any previous damage.. :sad:

I don't think a semi will give the same results
