Hi my pillars on my lx hatch have rust around the sides of where the front windscreen sits I was wondering of anyone does fabricate these panels or has any from a wreck ? It's only the outer skin that needs replacing(not whole pillar)

that's a very simple repair, you could buy some sheet metal and bend it up using a vice or some clamps and a few bits of steel. Only cut out the smallest piece that you need to. make the repair section first, lay it over the top, trace around it then cut the original out. then weld it up and grind it a litle.

I have the same problem only far worse. Can see daylight through mine if the door is open. I'm looking for some decent pillars for a replacement. Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry for the hijack. Was going to start a new thread but yours was already here.
