Door sill
Ahhh...my rear drivers side door sill fell off. I was cleaning the area and the thing popped off. I can't seem to get it back on the white piece of tab that it is suppose to be on....anyone help? Suggestions?

If i'm doing that, should I just go for the door sills on ebay? I dunno if those would rust or anything, or should I just go to dealership and get some new OEM ones as the ones I have now are all either cracked or just plain F'd up from age.

I recommend going to the dealer and getting the new tabs, if that's what's broken. They're pretty cheap. Or you can buy a whole new door sill with the tabs, it's like $20.

The tabs along the body sill aren't broken...i just can't seem to get the tabs underneath the sills. I see there's a track where the tabs go into, but I just can't get it into there =P I may get new sills from the dealership as mine are all worn out and the metal silver stripes on them are peeling off.

Kind of hard to explain.
