to answer my own question and to share todays experience with anyone interested i can confirm 100mm cubes minus the underside are suitable[skirt to be trimmed] whilst the 'sill extensions' in Brians diagrams fit vertically above the boxes.i am glad i had these made in advance of the cars visit to the welding bay along with sills/inner membrane.out of interest i will weigh the rust/dried mud removed from the existing ones-a few kilos now in a carrier bag!

Richard,
That's great news and sounds like everything is going well, did you manage to get any photos as I'd really be interested in them and see where the sill extensions fit.
What state were the actual boxes in?

what state were the boxes in?well they were in a state!ripe for restoration with the caged nuts in good condition.on the plus side i am grateful for the wax injection which has saved the inner sills largely along with alot of other areas.i am very pleased with everything so far.best regards richard
