Hey folks.
I wondered if any of you have used lockwood sill protectors before?
I idealy don't want to pay out like £80-90 for the official ones and wondered if anyone has tried these on a MK2 2008 focus 5dr at all?

Funny you should say that -
Just bought a set this week, delivered friday and going on as soon as i get time
They are stated as fitting all Mk2 / 2.5 5 door and look cracking and a good weight and finish.
Full set:

I put those on mine when I bought it. Great fit and well impressed with the quality.
Just make sure the sills are dry and clean. Masrk up where you are going to fit them with a pencil first.

I fitted a set of lockwood sill protectors on my last focus... I gave the sill a damn good clean with Autoglym tar remover first to make sure any traces of silicone were removed... In this weather i'd use a hairdryer also to "sticky up" the adhesive strips...
