I just bought these aftermarket Mercedes-Benz illuminated door sills off of ebay. I thought they look really good and everyone should get them. Here's a pic.

I agree. They do look nice, mr. salesman, but I'm not about to fork out 180 bucks for a set.

Is it me, or do the lights need to be re-aimed? From the side angle, it seems kinda scattered or something. Could it be the black asphalt, or the halogen lense, or...? How do your clear corners fit? I seem to be having a little trouble with fittment.

Well, i did not re-aimed after i installed those lights. It really depends on how you install them, but i believe that install those hid kits as like as replacing light bulb. I was just follow the factory setting, and I did not change anything. The rays of light are the same as factory, but they are much whiter. From camera's view might cause different even it is nothing wrong.
My clear corners are nicely fit, and they made by Bosch.
