Just a point , after driving through a lot of mud at easter , i found the 4 plastic jacking point covers full of damp mud ! not good for the old rust to set in , been in mud before but not come across this

Lost two of them in the snow. Now drive without them.

as the underside is painted you really do not need them I do not know why they bothered

They're handy to have fitted. If you scrape them off road they will protect the metal sill edge from being scratched. I’ve lost some of mine too.

they do save your sills and bear in mind that they are unique fitment, front left/right rear left/right and not interchangeable!

I have not refitted mine - just a pain if you get a puncture then have to try and remove them when stuck solid with mud

they are crud catchers, remove them and the plastic strips.

I'm running with mantec sill plates btw

I agree - they serve no purpose for me - I removed them as soon as I got the vehicle.

I couldn't see them anyway because of the side runners.
