Re: Correct sills !!
That being the case there not sealed at the sides what should I seal them with
Re: Correct sills !!
They don't want sealing. A slight gap allows air to circulate to keep the sills dry inside. It'd be worth taking them off though to examine the sills underneath & apply some anti-rusting treatment.

Re: Correct sills !!
I agree with all the above, but with ref to the original statement, they do look like the original kick plates and sill finishers. Just the right finish of silver with slight wear on top looks exactly as it should do...
