Illuminated Door Sills
Illuminated Door Sills
Installed them yesterday, took about 2hrs but I was taking my time. Install is pretty easy other than a few things:
Instructions are vague; you need to take some time to sort out what they are saying in the areas of connecting the electrical blocks and putting masking tape extensions on the 2-side tape so you can pull the protective layer off while it’s almost in place.
I’m a little concerned how well the 2-side tape will hold up long term. The new sill’s only use that adhere to the car where the stock sills use clips. It’s a subtle Mod but I think they add a touch of class.
Removing the two plastic vent covers that are on either side of the center console area up under the dash was a pain. One clip broke even though I took care. They are the tab/slot kind. Putting them back on they didn’t latch very well (even the one I didn’t break) so I’ll wait and see if they stay.

They are there for the long haul....you would have to pry them to get them off and probably still wind up putting a dent in the aluminum before they came off haha. Ive used similar adhesives like that before and learned that if you dont it right the first time, you're screwed lol
