Purchase review: Illuminated Door Plates
I arranged to meet JB who is selling those amg illuminated door sill (plate?) kits this morning in new york city. Couldn't be a nicer guy (I was two hours late in picking up 
and he was totally cool). Got a set for my dad's e63. Everything looks great, gorgeous parts in original oem wrapping and box. Can't wait for the big thaw so I can put them in for him. Just thought I'd post the word because he was such a nice guy.

I half heartedly attempted my install yesterday....then after 45 minutes of staring at the instructions with the drive side trim removed, I put it all back and decided to save it for when I'm reeeeeally bored

Lol Celicasaur- PM me if you have any questions! The instructions I gave you were for a LHD car (US), but it shouldn't be difficult to do a right hand drive (UK) installation, such as yours!

So today, I was reeeeally bored. And Voila. Ballin 
It's a very nice touch of class...not like the W212 even needs it, but hey I welcome it.
Thanks Jblaw - great deal on a great product

So based on this thread, I must have been lucky to get this on my 2011. Bonus!!
Anybody know how much this option was originally?
See pic of mine in "finally pics of my 2011" thread.

Thx Peter! Wish it was a bit more plug and play - some of that double sided tape and the rivets / tabs was a beotch!@#!! The original OEMs I had to toss bc I had no choice but to wedge them out and they were bent a bit too much to salvage ...
