Tin worm strikes again


Baywarrior

Recommended Posts

Hi guys and girls , this is my first post on here and I need your words of wisdom.

The dreaded tin worm has hit my disco , and I am trying to source a replacement panel. I've looked a Rimmer Bros website and other online suppliers but I am not sure what you would call the panel or its part number. I've highlighted the affected area . It's just external to the boot floor , under the rear door when it's closed .

I've not seen anything remotely looking like it on the net , so maybe I will have to get creative with a metal folder. Any ways any help would be gratefully received.

Thanks in advance

Not the easiest part to replace as the sill section is part of the larger rear crosmember assembly:

You could maybe cut out and make a smaller section profiled in the same way, but you may struggles to find good steel to stick it too... you can also get rear boot quarter sections also...

Put "discovery repair panel" into ebay search brings up a plethora of various repair sections available for the Discovery...
