Fitted stainless sill covers
Before
After
They fit on rubber grommets which go in the existing mounting holes, one fell in to the sill when fitting (pressed too had with the screwdriver). Is there anyway to get inside the sills without major strip down? I have made a simple grommet, but will need to do something better if it can't be retrieved.

Agree with the pressure washing, if that's all you've got, however, a Jimny would be rotten if you left it 14 years with nothing on it - Mr. MOT would be poking holes everywhere

Many thanks for the info re: undersealing .I received two quotes, one for Waxoyl at £495.00 incl.VAT and the other for Dinitrol at £844.80 incl. VAT. The later is taking orders for May next year ( at least I assume it's for next year, they only mentioned the May ).
I wont be using either method as we did 114,000 miles in 14 years with the Shogun with only a small amount of corrosion in the engine bay, and the Audi has covered 25,000 miles in 6 years and is still pristine. Neither was treated with anything other than factory applied.
I do believe in pressure washing the underside at periodic intervals and that's it.
