    Default Door Sills

    im just wondering if any one has seen or knows anyone that actually makes the stainless door sills ?

    ive seen the HSV and i dont want them. my cars not a HSV so it would look stupid.

    any help would be awesome im just looking for blank sills or possibly with holden name or lion.

    Fwiw these are the exact same as the genuine Holden ones:
    COMMODORE STAINLESS CHEV SCUFF PLATE 4 for VT VX VY VZ | eBay

    Looks like it wouldn't be too hard to pop off those chev badges and install a similarly sized holden badge.

    If you can't find the right size badge, you could get a badge that's slightly bigger with a filled in background so it completely hides the inset that it's supposed to sit in. I'm thinking the badge from a VY/VZ steering wheel might suit.

    Yeah, mine is not an SS either, I sent him and email asking if he could make blank / custom plates. The seller makes them in house, so shouldn't be an issue.

    Yeah no worries mate, will do. I'm heaps keen, I have a few scratches on my sills that are annoying. My car often goes to car audio comps too, and it sits on display all day so these would look very nice I think.
    Either way i'll let you know what I hear back. The price is certainly right, compared to others i've seen.

    A few years ago I was tempted to get genuine sill plates, but after seeing a pack of HSV sill plates at Holden for $200+ I looked elsewhere

    I found non-genuine sill plates at Repco, they are a generic polished aluminium, with frosted strips. I got the set (2 long for front doors & 2 short for rear doors) for something like $80 total. They don't have Holden badges, but they suite the car and look like they were always there.
