They look really good Clyde. Better than my new ones, as I couldn't bring myself to take the protective plastic film off them after fitting.
One thing I've discovered (thanks to some advice from Suzublu): These fittings are very easy to remove - they can just be prised up from the sill (use something plastic though, so you don't damage the paint). A 10 minute job that's worth doing, as it allows you to get rid of that line of dirt \ dust that inevitably appears around the black plastic at base of the trim (you can see some in the bottom left of your photo below). With the trim in place, it's difficult to clean properly without getting polish on the plastic. Cliff

Thanks Cliff.
I will have to look into removing the kickplates and it will make it a lot easier to cleam them as well. |
