When removing the floor side sill reinforcement, the front pillar reinforcement interferes with it in the front pillar section, and thus cut the front pillar reinforcement 125 mm below the centre of the front door hinge installation hole. In the quarter section, the centre pillar reinforcement interferes with it, and thus cut the centre pillar reinforcement 160 mm below quarter panel positioning notch.

Cut only the side sill reinforcement front of the new floor side sill reinforcement by aligning it with the cut area on the body side. Cut 205 mm forward from the cut area to create a cover. Next, cut the side sill reinforcement and the side sill front bulkhead by aligning them with the side sill reinforcement cut area on the body side. Cut only the side sill reinforcement 105 mm forward from the cut area to create a cover. Next, cut the side sill front bulkhead 55 mm forward from the cut area.
