self-illuminated door sills

NO , not an ad.

Just had the finished sample from the factory, Friend provide me with these set FOR FREE!!! YO ! can't wait to share.
it's just final test process.
same material, same finish, OEM fitment. no wiring or modification needed.
no plug just play.

battery powered LED last for 3 years after that just change battery easy ...painless...

Tell me what you guys think about it.

a little bit darken due to the voltage. But it's bright enough still. I'm very please with the final result.

it came with a small magnet attach to the edge of the door. when you open the door it will trigger. after 5 minutes it will turn off even if the door is not close.

Would you mind sharing where you got them from? And do they have similar items for the 2014 coupes (C207)?

Thanks!

There are some sticky links here just for the purpose of sell some parts. Against that it should not be a problem to post the link so please do so. If you still cannot please PM me too.

If this works as good as you say it does, then I regret in getting my other aftermarket sills.. had to spend money to get it wired because I didn't know how

I noticed that the lighted ones are wider than the original ones. Did that cause any type of problem since you are right at the edge of the sill? Also when you have to change the battery will the sill plate bind when you need to remove it? Will they be damaged from removing to change the battery?
