RBTech AMG Lighted Door Sills

I was just discovered that RBTech makes AMG Lighted Door Sills for the W203. Does anyone have any contact information for RBTech, or know of their website URL?

Thanks

Their website is www.rbtechla.com. They look to be a pretty solid tuner. Please post results if you do install the door sills. Thanks

I am getting a 2003 C32 AMG, so it won't be here until around September.

Here is a picture of the lighted AMG door sills from their website...

John, if you were to call them, can you ask them if they can just sell the AMG plate separately? I already have the "Mercedes Benz" illuminated sills, which means I have all the other necessary parts installed, just wonder if I can just take the top off and change it!? Thanks!!

Just called them, I beleive they are closed since they are in California, it's only 9:15 there. Unfortunately, they did not list the office hours on their message, so I will try back in a few hours.

I called them, and the guy estimated around $1300. He didn't check he just guessed; seemed busy.

Ralph Baise of RBTech is a personal friend...and I just spend a couple of hours in his shop this morning - checking out his fleet of tuned MBZs & a Hamann F360 Modena Spyder "WOW" I'll buzz him tomm. and see what kind of quote I can get for the sills.

Regards
Richard

Just got off the phone with Ralph Biase of RBTech, he does have the illuminated AMG sills available for the W203 his quote was $1000...the price reflects the custom fitting for the W203 and AMG is illuminated on all four door sills. According to him, MBUSA sells an application only for the W220.

Good Luck Gent's

$1000 sounds like a pretty good deal since it includes installation and the lighted door sills are for all four doors, rather than just two.

Roozy, you might be able to get them installed by your local dealer.
