FL2 Sill tread plates

Has anyone got sill tread plates for their FL2?

Any ideas where I might get them from and how much?

Thanks,
Spidey Cool

I bought some of these:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Freelander-2-Stainle..._994wt_941
They're simple formed stainless steel with double sided tape to fit. 2 minute job.
I would have liked the official LR ones with the logo but they were a bit too rich for me.

EDIT:
Ahhh... do you mean side steps?

Try that well know internet auction side Spidey (About £85 for non genuine) - I looked myself but I couldn't justify that for two lengths of shiny steel for the driver and passenger and two small triangles for the rear step area.

Yep..sill tread plates that stop scruffing the plastic sill.

Have seen the replica ones without the logo...what are they like? Seen them on Ebay...

The ones I got (link above) fit to the bodywork not the plastic trim, so it prevents damage to the actual paintwork.
I'll take a photo later...

All of 75p or something

good enough quality though, apparently Tasmod who made the RRS one gave him the dimensions and stuff for making them as he could knock them out alot faster

pondering on a set for the new car, but don't really want them plain again Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Thanks CG.

How do they attach and are they easy to take off without damaging the car or plates?

They are stuck on with a strong tape, so taking off would mean fishing wire or something to cut through

my concern was that the tape gave a couple of mm gap which could trap dirt and water but noticed no I'll effects whilst I owns the car Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis
