Door sill protectors 182

[DazBav]

Hi
Been looking at my Renault Sport sill protectors on the 182 and just wondering what others are like. Years ago on my BG 182 I seem to remember them sitting proud and fixing under the rubber door seal where as my current ones seem like a heavy duty vinyl. I also don't remember the squares on it either. Ones for sale on ebay look different to mine.
I may however be totally wrong.

I'm sure the megane came with them. Nice little touch to be honest

 

[DazBav]

Ah yes I do remember seeing them on a Phase 1 225 Meg before. Are they normally different on the Clio?

 

[Carbonraider]

The sill protectors on the Clio are the plastic ones like you have described. Keep it as above though I like it.

I've got the above ones on mine too, I think the plastic ones look a bit too cheap compared to these personally

Where can you purchase the ones above

Bump. Anyone know where these can be purchased? My car has this style of sill protector but they’re looking a bit tired so need replacing.

eBay

Probably means its had a heavy side impact and they've been replaced with non genuine ones.

I'm sure these were fitted to later 182s particularly RB and inferno cup models.

Later 182 came with the metallic type, 172 came with grey plastic and I'm sure some PH1 were slightly different colour too

I'm sure these were fitted to later 182s particularly RB and inferno cup models.

They weren’t fitted to 182 Cups as it was pared back to save “weight” (LOLz) they didn’t even come with an engine cover.

The newer looking ones were just a refreshed version of these (below) that were used on the later cars (05’/55’)

But as said they do turn up on eBay often enough as I actually fitted the older style to my 182 Cup

Prefer the older heavy duty ones
