Default need rocker panel or rocker panel covers part numbers

can anyone tell me part numbers for a short wheelbase 1998 dodge caravan rocker panels? I have bad rust holes under the doors, not on the doors. I believe they are called rocker panels. i would prefer getting the sporty looking plastic rocker panel covers and be done with it, but if necessary, would get the steel and paint and replace. thanks

Okay I looked up the parts and I think the ones you were asking about are called front and rear cladding sills. They are not serviceable with a part number, but the molding are that are further up on the doors.

ok, did you see any part numbers for the actual rocker panels? It looks like I'm stuck with getting the actual steel for the body under the doors like on this site link. I hope I'm explaining it right, my doors are fine, I just need to fix the rot and rust on the "fixed" part of the body underneath the door. I believe there are two pieces on each side but I don't want to pay hundreds of dollars. if I had part numbers maybe I can find a good deal. thanks for your time

There wasn't any part numbers. The only thing I read was they were not serviceable. So guessing body shop. Because they may need to cut the old piece out and weld a new piece in

Is there a pick and pull or salvage yard that lets you walk the yard and pull your own parts near you. Just go there and find what you want. I am going to the yard next weekend to find some covers for my rockers and door bottoms. My yard said they have 4 with the large lower trim.
