I wouldn't mind knowing this either...... the only ones I seem to find are also a few hundred quid, which seems rather expensive for what they are!

I would try a Subaru dealer. They are the kind of thing that might be cheaper from a dealer like front fog light covers. I got my sills thrown in when I bought a wrx a few years back, but I don't recall them being expensive anyway.

I just take them off and put them on the next car with new double sided tape.

Ummm... I have already looked at the parts website that the dealer uses to order such parts Therefore it will still be £225. Sorry don't mean to be sarcastic but that was the point of this post to find something cheaper.

Nice find Do you have the link to that? I can't seem to find it on the Subaru Accessories pages.
