I need to get some sheet steel to repair my 300tdi's sills but struggled to get a good reading with my vernier off any of the edges I could get to.

Anyone know what gauge was used?

I want like for like not Isambard Kingdom Brunel spec items! so none of that "Take em off and replace them with RSJs",thanks.

Cheers.

Thanks, guys.
I have to admit that I thought it was up around the 1.5mm.
Anyone got a repair panel they could measure?

I should coat the insides of the sills with waxoyl when all done to stop it goin the same way.
