Question Possible to add illuminated blue scuff plates?

Hello,

I have a 2007 IS 250. Although my car does not have them, I noticed last year a package that contained scuff plates that glowed a blue Lexus, when you opened the door. Is it possible to have these added? If so, would the dealership be willing to do it, and approximately how much should I expect it to cost (parts & labor)? Thanks in advance!

don't let the dealer to do it, since your vehicle is yr 2007, it is plug and play.

just buy them from lexus-parts.com(where i bought them from and was satisfied w/ quality) then pop your non-illuminated scuff and plug and play!

it is so easy!

i installed it in the morning right before i went to school.

takes about 2 minutes to install

It's nicer in person. Worth the money! I sold my old ones to cover some cost of the new.

It's standard on lux, sports, and x package cars, white illuminated, for 08... base or premium package cars don't get it standard.
