I tried to get all the words in the subject so you get the idea.
I am not at home so i can't get pictures, but when going over the whole car the other day, it came up that the a-pillars in the front of the door openings, on the lower end were rusted beyond saving... pinholes that turned into dime size holes.  it has been coated to stop any further rusting, but it needs to be replaced.

I have searched all over looking for these parts, but it appears that no one is re-popping them.
Anyone know if I am just not looking in the rigth places, or is this something that has to be made?  Or perhaps cut from a donor?

Thanks in advance.  I know it has been a while since I have posted, but I hope to get back on the horse now that the little one is about 5 months old and sleeping/eating much much better!

EDIT

My apologies.
I do have somewhawt of a picture.
Far left side of the picture you see the rust holes

The rockers as well have rust from the top down, odd, the underside is in really good shape, but it looks like the moisture burrowed in from the top and then down.

I found it on the goodmark site... I sent them a note as they were out of stock... aren't these the manufacturers of the part in question?  Kind of hard to believe they are out of stock, but we will see what they say.

I might have to take you up on that as I just heard back from Greg at Goodmark and these aren't even available yet... they are still working on the tooling with no production date scheduled yet... here is his quote as of today...

"Still working on making the tooling with no production date scheduled yet…keep watch on our website for updates."
