i have ordered a pair of these but cant figure out where is goes however i should be in possession of them tomorrow but thought some of you might like to guess what it is as i know what its supposed to be and im still not sure what it is laughing



the winner gets nothing although i could stretch to a handful of genuine vauxhall dust which is nowhere near as rare as fairy dust but equally as magical as it just appears from nowhere Shocked

Well its here and yes it is the bit the floor tray attaches to however im guessing the floor tray sits on top of it but the front does not look like it will fit right?
The bit it replaces goes right down and meets the sill at the bottom and this bit doesn't as it bends 90 degrees and tucks under the floor instead is there a reason for this?
