Ph1 side skirt mounting points

gudger12345 · Nov 20, 2024

Hello all,
Does anyone have the dimension for where the side skirt plastic are mounted to the sill. Pot rivet hole locations ideally.
I have had new sills fitted to my ph1, i took measurements of the distance between each hole on the original sills but didn't take note of how high up the sill they were mounted/ drilled.
Also if anyone has a link to the rivets that would be great.
Thanks

Hey Gudger

Is it just the height of the rivet holes on the sill you're after? Cars in the bodyshop atm, but happily measure them up when it's back this weekend if no1 else comes through for you before hand mate

Hey @gudger12345, got these this weekend.. whilst doing it it dawned on my that you might be after the brackets that sit above the sill.. in which case, I can still get for you but will be a few weeks when I pull mine off - sorry!

Couldn't see any holes in the sill on the picture you posted above so proceeded to get these anyway!

The height of the first and last rivet hole were up 1.5cm up from the bottom of the sill, the middle 3 holes were up 1 cm.. and the bottom of the sill and sideskirt itself were basically flush on those middle 3.

Thanks for the information.
Unfortunately i need the locations of the plastic mounting points to then drill the holes to rivet/ riv nut the mounting points onto the car as i had new sills fitted which do not come pre drilled.

Sweet, hopefully Mintno can grab them for you.. if not i'll do it when I pull the skirts off mate but won't be for a few weeks I reckon

See how these compare

as far as I am aware factory sill on my shell, all measurements in mm, to centre of holes. Measurement from outer door jam lip approx. 40mm down and measurement from bottom of sill I held a piece of wood from the bottom of the sill so I could measure flat rather than following the curve of the sill. Also you can see in the pic my black plastic mounts the hole isn't in the middle, hopefully all makes sense but any questions or if you need anything else just shout

Cheers Gareth
