Has anybody installed the illuminated door sills themselves or
does the dealer install them for free since they are already
overpriced anyway ?
Also if you have illuminated doorsills in your car how cool/impressive do you think they look.
I have a silver car and was thinking about installing Blue doorsills.

i'm getting illuminated door sills on my coupe which is due to arrive in about a week or so. actually my dealer just called today to ask what color i wanted (blue, green, or yellow: i chose blue). i don't know about installing them yourself, but the dealership charges a per hour labor charge. i think they cost around 400 to 500 bucks to install depending on the experience of the dude or dudette installing them.

I dont think it is possible for the dealer to install the sills for free unless the owner of the dealer is your father or yourself! The dealer will definitely charge you at least 3 hours of work regardless of the actual installation time because this is where they make money.

If its done by an experienced tech, it can be done within 1 hr. The hardest part is to locate the power cord and drill a couple of holes on the body & let the wires go through. No a tough job IF you know what you're doing.

They look pretty cool, especially at night.

500 Dollars to install door sills. I choose to pass on that decision.
There are other better things I can spend my money on as far as
car stuff goes.

The next hot item on my list is the Garmin StreetPilot GPS system
with voice recognition. Roughly 600 $ on etronics.com
