Default Where to buy sapphire / 5 door inner repair arches?

Hi,

I'm trying to sort out the usual rotten rear arch problems on my sapphire and can not get hold of the inner arch repair panels.

Ebay lists inner arches for a 3 door but not a 5 door / sapphire and according to panel suppliers websites they are different part numbers.

I've purchased the outers and I have a 3 door inner that I tried against the outer and its close but where the sapphire has a thin bit where the door aperture goes the inner and outer touches when held together.

Does anybody no where I can get Sapphire inner arches from? or what you've used when doing your own?

Thanks.

Some people buy a rear repair arch and use that for the inner arch.

You cant buy the inner only the outer, most use the outer arch to repair the inner arch as there isnt really much other choice. There available from euro car parts and are dirt cheap

Thanks, totally forgot about that place, had it saved in favourites as well. Looks like they have got stock but will cut of my outer arches first before ordering to see how bad my inners are.

Cheers.
