Thanks for the heads up. I'll be taking mine off for a look next week. I noticed a lot of crud at the front end of the sills when I took the wheel arch liners off the other day, made a mental note to clean up around there sometime. Fingers crossed it won't be too bad as the rest of the underside is surprisingly clean for a car of it's age and mileage.
