I haven't been able to find one.. If you have any info on a new floor panel that would be great. :doublethumbs:

Citroa do them... but I think they're in spain...

Might be worth asking them how much it would cost though?

Found citroa before but thought they were in Colombia/south america? (Didn't fancy sending money half way round the world)
Emailed them anyway.. Will let you know if I get an answer/price

Why don't you just replace the floor with a large sheet of 2/3mm steel?

Now you see, I actually find the ridged floor really useful.
It's handy to be able to put stuff on it even if the back is full of mudwater. As long as what you put there is flat-ish and rigid, it won't get too muddy. I suppose a flat plate would be easier to clean though.

I also like the ridges cos it means I can jetwash underneath my ammo boxes (bolted to the floor) without removing them...

lol, you can rarely see the floor in your SJ :hahaha:

Your floor is usually made out of 100 empty lucazade bottles :P

I had an email back from Citroa quoting me for the front floor pans :?:
Front floor pan 180usd x2= 360usd + shipping 100usd = 460usd. Currency converter: 460usd = 292GBP
I've replied asking for the original quote for the boot/trunk panel.
I checked the international dialing code and Citroa are in Columbia.
