If you want cheap, it will look cheap, but pay a bit more, or make up templates for them, it helps things along, they also think my car is superb and will enjoy the company of it.
If anybody needs help with welding and happy to travel to NN15 area, I am happy to provide info of the garage !
As you’re an MoT tester, could I ask what’s what regarding load bearing and the state of the sills? Don’t think I’m alone here in being confused why some testers as in the OP’s car get an advisory, yet other testers pass Suzublu’s car with no comment, and my daughter’s which needs a 18” repair section also without comment.

My previous SD1s were also prone to sill rot, but no chance of getting one of those through even though the metal was thicker.

Confused
