QUESTION: Volvo V70R phase 1 year 1998 cgassis no. YV1LW5208W2433191.
Hope this helps with your answer.
It's my sons car so dont have the log book.The rain run-off has become blocked and obviously water has collect in the sill causing it to rust. Would'nt have found this if the car had'nt gone in for trolley train damage by Tesco's, they are paying for their damage, but obviously not the sill rot and replacement of same. Look forward to your answer.

Answer
Hello Pat

The 1998 v70 rocker panels are not available in small pieces.
The 'R' refers to the cosmetic package , rally package.
Keep in mind, these are prepay, non-returnable items and include the A,B,C pillars as well as the rocker.
Hope this helps
