To stop it you'll need a strengthening plate welding in behind the pillar and then the crack itself, welded and sprayed.

can any welder just weld any plate in then ye? just to stengthen it? and is it just a case of taking the interior trim off to get behind the panel to put plate there?

sod that, if you're selling it, p40 and some rattle can spray over the filler (tape it off as to not ruin too much paint).
Anyway, stop hijacking my thread
