Default Sill cover parts no. help

Hi Guys

I am wondering if anyone can help with a part number for the washers that are used for the 5 or 6 screws which hold the sill cover onto the alloy rail which is bolted to the sill?

They don't seem to appear on the PET, I can only see the screws. The washers are formed to take a countersunk screw head.

I am either looking for a part number or a set of these

Thanks
Marti

No help so far because I suspect no one has a clue about what you are talking about. What kind of sill?

I buy thin stainless steel countersunk washers in #6 and #8 screw sizes from an aviation supply company.

Marti - it would really help if you added the year and model of your car.
By sill cover do you mean the scuff plate on the door sill? Black with "928" in the middle?
A picture would work wonders.

Hi Guys, I am referring to the S4 / GTS plastic still covers which run along the lower side of car, not the black scuff plates.

The cover is held in place by 5 or 6 screws which are hidden by a black plastic cover strip in the door step and under the car they are held on by 8 or so screws which go onto into plastic grommets.

The screws in the door step section sit in small metal washers which are designed to take the countersunk screw head.

Hopefully that pin points the part I am looking for - the metal washers for the countersunk screws.

You should be looking at PET illustration 810-5.
My educated guess is spacer sleeve 928 559 314 00 and PET has the quantity wrong - should be 12 and not 2.
Order one to make sure it is the right part.

That was what I thought, I think I will give that a go. I will report back my findings.

I need the part on the left
I need the part in the middle
Unfortunately in the end 928 international did not have the part so I am still looking for a set of 12 of these.

I have attached a picture of the part for further clarity. Does anyone have these?

Does anyone have any spare of these washers? They would have to come from a car being parted out or new old stock?
