I've done all four corners on my own car, and provided the internal jacking points are ok (mine were not sadly) then it is a straightforward job.

What must be avoided is the temptation to use a garage who will simply plate over the top of the crusty parts.as this will accelerate the demise of the car.

I was looking for jacking pads last evening and stumbled across this, yuk !!

These are not pictures of my own car, I'f I'd found levels of corrosion this severe, it would have gone to meet it's maker !!

Looking at post rustproofing, this needs to be applied through both the drain holes in the bottom of the sill, and the holes where the clips which hold the chrome trim in place normally live.
