Very unlikely
This is classic poor jacking damage that most of these cars have
Best bet is to find an old 1.4 with low mileage
Or try and source from abroad
Genuine good luck with this

Or find a really good welder fabricator to reconstruct it from scratch

I have just replaced the RH side one with a new part and repaired the LH side. If I had to do it again I would just repair it!

Peugeot. Not cheap and only the RH side was available.

I got this done and a garage did a great job (they had to do it again a couple of years later when they caved in the box sections they'd done so nicely).

I asked the Peugeot parts man when I was looking to do this and the 'stiffeners' as Pug calls them (oo-err missus) were some ridiculous price.

A good fabricator can do a factory-looking job. Just ensure that weld-through primer is used, and the area is cavity waxed on completion.

An alternative is to get them from cut from a scrapped shell from New Zealand; the shells there are pristine as no road salt is used. I got some mint front wheel-arch brackets from there to replace my crumbly ones and someone else on here did too.

I can PM you the details of the NZ dismantler I used if needed.

Chalk out what you need I've got a rust free shell that I might be able to cut it out from, but like a lot of people say it's the first bit to get damaged

I'd love it if you cut the driver's side sill off for me?

Now I can see why I couldn't find them on service box......certainly not what I was looking for and service box isn't that clear!



Parts 14 and 34. Didn't realise they included the longer part that covers the chassis rail.

I think it's parts 15 and 35 I've already got my parts man on the case with.

Cheers mark, very helpful

34 also includes the subframe mounting captive nuts. Given the cost I would plate it.
