Im in, I also liked the sugg of Club Lexus sils. I would be even more interested in those. Maybe the board could order a few sets and create a "Premium" membership package or somthing that would recover the cost of them and still fund the board as well for new members that may be interested in these in the future. Just another thought...

Default door sills

Yeah, the price sounds reasonable but I do have a few questions.
1. What is the installation like for the peices? Would it be very time consuming and need a lot of wiring expertise?
2. Do all 4 light up when 1 door opens or does each light up dependent on which door opens?

Thanks and I hope someone can answer these questions.

Default Wiiring

Each light is on a separate circuit. The switch is located in the lock assembly inside each door. So 4 separate circuits.
Switch is activated by the negative wire connecting and disconnecting depending on the door switch. So a tap into this circuit and a positve tap into the constant positive circuit should be fine depending on the current draw of the Sills. A relay is recommended. This would be the easiest way. Unless your switch is failing as many GS's do.
