New Stuff for the car!

I ordered the Black Birds Eye Maple Door handles over four months ago from Oberklasse. I finally canceled my order and found them at FORMYMERCEDES. Got them in three days!
I also picked up a set of Blue “AMG” illuminated doorsills.
I installed both of them this weekend. Sorry my camera washes out the doorsills light.

Got them for $149.00 at www.formymercedes.com
I e-mail Jerry directly and asked him if he had the door handles in stock and told him I was also looking for the "AMG" doorsills.
He replied back that he had both in stock.
Best of luck to ya,
Tim

Tango,
I took pictures of the complete installation, the only problem is my camera washes out the lite portion of the sill. I need to find the right light to take a picture of the finished product.
I'll post it when I do.

They are very simple.
They are really just a cover piece that wraps around the sides of the handle.
There is a little notch on the bottom of the handle. It'a about a 1/2 inch long. I took a small flat blade screw driver and put into the notch and pulled up gently while pulling on the edges of the handle. Take the handle/cover off and replace it with the wood piece. There are some round embossed edges that fit over the mating side on the door handle. Just snap the new handle on.
And your done, pretty easy.
I think they look good on the door, it cleanes it up IMO.
