awesome! have 'em on my cls63 and my e550....
the e550 is a bit nicer because the light is blue...which makes it a bit
tamer in ambient light
but white on the cls.....and they do shine brightly.....might be cool to
slap a different color film on them or something....

they both look sweet

Love them - they were canceled on my build as well - maybe they're back in stock?

I have them in my GL550 but not the CLS. IMO thats the last thing you notice when the interior is lit up at night....

The blue ambient LED lights are my favorite part of the interior. With the orange contrasting lights the interior looks right out of Tron.

I wish the AMG sills came in a matching blue LED. I will wait for an aftermarket solution.
