Plastic piece. What's it called?
« on: 11 December 2012, 16:11 »
i know the title isn't helpful (this is on my mk3 16v gti)  but between the plastic that runs the length of the doors and the arches, there is a little square piece that slips on (it look liks it joins the two) it has a little plastic screw in it. What is this piece called? as some little s**t ripped one off my car, plus i already had one missing so it's just annoying me. It's like i've completed a puzzle but i'm missing the final piece  :undecided:

You mean the sill trim end caps? They just slide on the end and are held in place with a screw. You can get them from main dealers for about a £5 or they come up on ebay now and then. Also plenty Mk3's being broken on here maybe get some off of them.
