Best fitting inner rocker/floor section ???

Need to replace inner rockers. Found these two pieces so far. Looks much better than trying to use the seperate pieces that are available. Maybe the pics are just left and right sides, but some bolt holes look different for example.

Has anyone one used these parts and how well did they fit ?

Is there more than one manufacturer ?

What brand should I look for for best fit - like Tri-plus or something like that ?

Thanks in advance.

Brothers sells Triplus and not sure on Manes. It is a real quality part. We have installed them and they actualy fit. Here are some pics. The bolt holes in the front line up and the raised floor section actually lines up and so does the Seatbelt hole on back. I was impressed. We sell them of course for less than Brothers. I think our price is $45.00.

The one from brothers or whom ever sells it for the best price, look alot better than the ones that LMC has. I would rather do the whole section than trying to weld in the inner then the outer rocker. Seems like this would be simpler.
