Morning Everyone,

I am looking for a shop to install a set of OEM illuminated door sills. The shop needs to be around the Chicago Area optimally. With a good reputation, if anyone knows of someone who can tackle this, I am also willing to give it to a indy shop with a good tech as well. Please let me know or shoot me a PM.

Thanks in Advance,
KC

Do it your self, easy to do.

Any place to find the OEM illuminated door sills at a good price ?

formymercedes. com is where the installer in the DIY got his

The accessory guys at Hoffman estates Infiniti can do it we do all the accessories for all the motorwerks stores, main guy there has over 25 years experience.

how much do they usually go for?
i have a set thats been laying around for over a year now

I got a set like that on eBay, but in my testing the seat's light didnt have enough current to trigger the sills. Maybe I'll try again.

I don't think they are OEM though, there is no part number. They don't look like the ones on GL-class or G-class. The W211 accessory catalog lists door sills in four different colors, but they all say "Mercedes-Benz" not "AMG" and they are all front-only, no rear sills.

oem sills the wiring runs to the trunk, i fitted some in the front and had to run wiring to the fuse box in the trunk, pig of a job, they look kool though!

at the same time i ran the ipod wiring to the trunk even though i havent had time to complete that install yet!

I've got a set from formymercedes.com sitting in my garage. Need to tackle this soon as well.

fwiw, they aren't OEM. But they are decent quality.

Dealers sell the OEM versions.

fwiw, I had a factory installed set that I gave to Shardul through Clayton's pay-it-forward thread. PM him and I'm sure he can help you out on installing them in a car that didn't have them factory installed (it's not just a simple plug and play with the OEMs)

+1 The OEM ones are high quality and take a lot of work to install, the above DIY is for the after market sills.

Thanks I will look them up!!

I have FormyMercedes on my W140, there is a quality difference, but 99% of people would never realize it. I only know because I have the OEM

I paid $175 for my OEM Sills complete new in box on ebay.
