Sill trim end caps

Post by rft218 »

Hi All,

I am trying to fit the S sill trims along the outside of the sill. The main straight bit is ok but I have some Dansk end caps and the fitment is very poor. I cant find any details of pictures online of how well (or otherwise) they fit.

I think the reality is that I will need to order the Porsche ones but wanted some moral support that they will be better, and any pictures of the fit would be really helpful.

Cheers

Roger

I haven't fitted any for many years so can't really offer any useful advice.

However, I wouldn't be surprised if the ones available from Porsche are the same ones manufactured by Dansk ...

I think I have an old used one (fairly sure it's an original) somewhere - happy to send it to you FOC to compare fitment if it would be of any help.

Hi All,

Thanks to Andy I received an original sill trim end cap and it is much more deeply pressed and fits much better... so the answer appears that if the OE ones match the originals they are much better than the Dansk copies.

Cheers
