Pierre insisted on doing the install for his own personal experience, charged me only $50, not bad for 3.5 hours of labor time. I've heard other shops charging $200 on a W210.

It's a mediocre shot, but you get the idea!

$450? $250?

Jesus, everyone is paying the Mercedes tax. I'm making these out of a string of super bright LED's and I'm still under the $100 mark!

Unless these are new skirts, you guys are seriously being robbed of your money, but hey, I might be wrong and this might be a full fledged kit. I dunno.

The ones I'm making are wired to my door light so whenever I open the door the lights turn on automatically (they will fade on, I used a few caps).
I am also planning on having a switch to do the following...
1)Fade them on.
2)Fade them on a timer.
and lastly
3)Have another set of YELLOW or ORANGE LEDs set to my blinker.

Then.. I'll charge you guys the same price... because if you're getting all that..
