| 1. |
Mount the car in an alignment bench with measuring fixture and cross-measure as necessary.

Drill out the spot welds and grind down the welds to the inner sill reinforcement.

Roughly cut the spare part so that it will overlap the joints by a couple of centimetres.
|
|
| 6. |
Fit the new sill in place and fixate it with a few welding clamps.
|
|
| 7. |
Cut through the new sill and the body together so that the joint can be butt welded.
|

Remove the sill and punch or drill holes for plug welding.
|
|
