lol, true! But the illumination is a BIG enhancement. I get many compliments from people as soon as you open the doors at night :p It's money well spent

Really.....I was thinking about getting the lighted door sill, but I really like the original sills that read "Mercedes Benz V8" on it as well.

Yeah, I realized they didn't say the "V8" on them after i got them installed... but when you see it illuminating at night, all bad thoughts are replaced by, "****, that looks nice!"

i never noticed what the originals said...

i will have a proper look tomorrow when i get the car...

i do think that lights might be the way forward and to hell with the cost...

prob is... also want 19", nav, tints, exhaust, filter....and the list goes on....

I hear you Pffelan...
I'd like 19's, exhaust, etc... but I think for the cost, the illuminated door sills are a nice visual improvement. I'm still pleased with mine
