What is considered aftermarket?
I purchased the oem illuminating doorsills and installed them myself in 2011. Now I am having battery drain issue and had to remove my aftermarket items, would they consider the oem doors sills also aftermarket because mb didn't perform the install?

Another round of ICE
OE Mercedes-Benz parts are not "aftermarket", regardless of who installs them. However, an improper DIY installation of an OE part could void a warranty on another directly affected part if the dealer can demonstrate cause-and-effect.
