Illuminated door sills and illuminated chrome trunk lid...PICS INSIDE!
I thought it was going to be a breeze, but NOOOO...it took a bit of time to install with my brother, and the trunk lid...man...let's just say 3M makes good double-sided tape. Cut my fingers open trying to pry that thing off to fix the wiring. In the end, it was more than worth it...it totally adds a unique and 'complete' look to the rear-end of the E-Class.
The illuminated door sills are also really nice...adds that unique touch as well...I know that when I get another car, I'm most definitely putting them in the next car as well. Let me know what you guys think.

I'm more concerned about the fitting than the cost, really...I'll call the car dealer to see if it fits.
Again, I really appreciate the info, ghaffar!
Cheers mate!
