    Ebay one on poptop's link looks like upright bit of inner step is missing? Like someone started to make it fit a crossover. £50 buy it now's a bargain. I need one of those after christmas, but not if there's bits missing... :thinking:

  7. Still a good price if you wanted to use it to make some repairs to a party rusty arch

    Annoyingly, I had some steps I'd cut off to make arch fit a crossover, but chucked them recently when I had a tidy up. Sods law...

    I'm a front wheel arch perfectionist, I couldn't really weld the step back on like that. :)

    Just read your post bud - we had similar issues with trying to get a wheelarch to fit and line up correctly, in the end Zed suggested genuine - which we did in the end on the one side, all was well once we did so!
     
  12. Yeah cheers mork, i cant afford genuine arch and cant bring myself to undo all my welding done so far on the tub. Iam gonna take a risk and order the vwh complete step and pray i can manage to fit it reasonably! Other than that its gonna be complete arch replacement which will be gutting! Iam so close to being done:(
