illuminated door sills

Hi. I got illuminated door sills today but came to a dead end when I took the oem sills off because the guy didnt send me the instructions. I looked around on this board and google for diy but couldn't find any for w203 sedan. The ones I did find were for other cars and useless because key steps required parts my car doesn't have.

Does anyone have a diy with illustrations? formymercedes doesn't have it for w203 sedan, it takes me to some advertising site when i click their "installation".
I started with the right rear door btw, what wire colors am I supposed to be looking for?

He answered the phone today, called him a few hours ago, he was helpful and promised to get back to me if he found a useful diy.


Thanks for the info Victor

Thanks for all the help guys! I got the rear two on, gona work on the front ones tommorow. Once you figure out what to do its piece of cake. But if you have no idea about how circuits work prepar to do some lengthy research.
