Latest Mod: Lighted Door Sills

Just got my lighted door sills installed! Sorry for the bad pics (and the dirty floor mat and pedals). It is raining out today so not ideal for a photo shoot. Hope you all like.

They're coming. The damned weather won't cooperate. I don't want pics of dirty wheels. The guys at the tire store who swapped my winter wheels for the summer wheels made me wait while they all took pics before I left. The guys at the custom shop were blown away by the wheels when I dropped the car for the sill install. Everywhere I go it's the same. I couldn't be happier.

I've been debating these, but am sold now. Do they offer a matching set for the rear?

Looks good Is there any way to change the bulb? I think they would look even better if they were a white led.

Honestly, I don't know.

Thanks. I don't think there's any way to change the color. It is not really a bulb, but more like an indiglo light. I don't know that the pics really gave it justice, but the AMG looks like stainless when it's bright out. It doesn't look like a lens or glass.

there is a way, but it's tedious. nearly all sills are made using electroluminescent
panel. before you installed the sill, you would need to peel off the EL sheet
and tape in the color of your choice. there may be a white white color but
I've not seen. usually they are seen in other colors - example.
