Is it possible for you to send me a picture of your door sill? harris@hartonmotorwerks.com. I need to take a look at the construction of the sill first. If its too much of a hassle, I'll pop by my dealer and figured it out.

What about the Guy on E-Bay?

What about the Person on E-Bay that sells them for 180 + s/h

I talked to him and he said he can get them to say Lorinser, Mercedes-Benz, AMG, Brabus.

Depending on How many People I can get, he would give a discount.

I'm going to get them Regardless, but if anyone wants me to try and get a group thing going then I will be happy to talk to him again.


Edit: Took out Pics of other peoples products......

Added Link instead.

Neither the Brabus nor the MB ones look as good as the real thing, IMHO. Brabus is now selling theirs on ebay as well for a pretty decent discount, so look for them every so often.

FYI, Brabus will NOT sell anything on eBay anymore. A lot of dealers dont like it, including me.

Harris, how do you think they'd feel about one of their dealers making and selling a competing product that's cheaper? Have you discussed it with them? Just curious.

LiquidSmoke - STFF; I think that truelove posted his blue ones at some point.

Here's a pic of my Brabus ones (note how much better they look that the fake ones -- well, if they were clean):

The one that I am MODIFYING is COMPLETELY different than the original one nor the one on eBay. Can anyone make the sills which says "Kompressor" or "Bad Boy"? "Custom-made" means you can put ANY letterings you want.

If you want to generate some business, start another thread. Please dont ruin my post.

Tommy, let me stressed this one more time. The one that I am building is COMPLETELY different from the one Brabus is selling. Apple and orange are both fruits, but are they the same? I dont think so. I am also representing other brands as well, do you think I have to discuss with them too?

What annoys me the most is you're showcasing a series of whoever's picture in here. Its more of an advertising than asking a question. You can simply post the ebay link. Also, can you please tell me who told you that MY product is selling for over $400? I never post my selling price on the board.

Well The reason I was saying "what about the guy on ebay" because some people were saying that they did not know if anybody makes sills. I did not post the link, due to the fact alot of companies filter out e-bay so the employees that work there dod not spend all day on there. Where I got the price from was your other post on the first page.

I havent really set a price for it yet. There are a couple of problems that we are facing now....the demand and the modification. As you've seen on the pic, we took out the factory silver plate and replaced with our own plate. We have to cut underneath the black sill in order to take out the silver plate. If we send you a "modified" door sill, i.e. the black sill with the custom plate already installed, it will be pretty expensive.

There are 3 things that I have to order: 1) the light itself, they are not light bulbs, rather a very thin "pad" that will illuminate when connected 2) the replacement plate, very cheap, but there are labor involved 3) the factory black sill (have to get it from the parts dept, and they're VERY expensive). In order for me to make a profit out of it, I have to sell it at least $450-500. But who will buy it from me for $500 whereas you can get the factory ones for $529???

[snip]

Edit:
Just to show you that I was not trying intentionally to **** you off in any way I edited my first post and took the pics out and put a link in.

I was not trying to upset you in any way.
