2025 SEAL Metal Door Sill Protectors: distinguish scratched protectors from body sill damage
Australian MY25 SEAL lists Metal Door Sill Protectors on all trims. Record door position and the damaged layer before specifying body or trim parts.
A scratched entry area may lead to a parts request saying only “SEAL sill damaged”. Distinguishing the metal protector from the body sill on Australian MY25 SEAL helps the repairer determine which physical layer needs checking.
The factory names a protector
The Australian specification table lists Metal Door Sill Protectors for Dynamic, Premium and Performance. An explicit model-year entry in the local brand network separately supports MY25 identity.[Factory equipment][R07][Model-year supporting source][R17]
The protector name is not the name of a structural body component. “Metal” is only the published description; it does not establish material grade, structural strength, fastening method or collision repair capability.
Overall damage location is more useful than a scratch close-up alone
Specify front/rear door position and left/right side, retaining photographs of the overall entry area, damage and surrounding connections. Record surface scratches, missing original parts and visible surrounding deformation separately, so a close-up does not combine different procurement objects.
When organising photographs, mark the surface protector and the body area inspected by the repairer separately. If the requirement is only surface treatment of the protector, check that object. If a separate body repair finding exists, retain its scope and parts list independently.
Scope and verification
This article covers only Australia, MY25 BYD SEAL, Dynamic, Premium and Performance.[Model-year scope][R17] The cited product equipment identifies functions and parts; it is not a fault or replacement criterion.
No public data was available in the reviewed material for protector dimensions, fastening method, separate supply, sill structure and repair standards; OE numbers, repair parameters, separate parts availability or compatibility and interchangeability. [To be verified] Verify compatibility or interchangeability using the vehicle identification number (VIN) and local Australian manufacturer parts catalogue.
