Anyone know if Harvey is still making these sills, and if so, how to get ahold of him?

Any other sources out there? I have seen some very nice ones in use, but I can't find any for sale.

There was a set of stainless sill plates on my car when I bought it. They have little Porsche crest emblems glued to the middle - with super glue I assume. Did anyone else have this setup and successfully remove the emblems without scratching up the stainless?
My plan is to ditch the crests and add some black adhesive vinyl with a long '968' die-cut out of it. So the sill plate would be mostly black, with the brushed stainless showing through the 968.

That one looks like it has less coverage than the ones I've got. I'll have to take a pic and post it for comparison.

The link for the sill plates the Ryker purchased is:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/331172815990
They are aluminum, rather than S/S. They require some fitment and finishing, not a knock, just want you to know what you are buying.
I'm going to pass for now.

I got a reply. I asked for shipping of 10 sets to the US (looking for a group buy). No discount 95 (British) pounds shipping.
OY!

Yes, these look like they replace the plastic. I am looking for the lower sill cover. There is one on the 944 in the ad, but that does not appear to be what is for sale.
