Default Sill plates
Need some new ones... curious if there are any pics of non stock sill plates out there? I have a black interior and am going to do some looking around.

Also, anyone fix the holes that the sill plate screws thread into? Mine are shot and the screws strip out in them. Procedure?

Thanks,
Dan

Plastic screw anchors. Push them into the stripped holes. Screw in your sill plate screws.
