Talking Illuminated sill plates-quick ques

I tried to search but did not find the definte answer.

2009 I just have plastic and want the illuminated plates. I have wood, ventilated seats, nav, no memory seats.

Will it be just plug and play? Or will I need to do some splicing?

Thank you!!!!!

Thanks guys. Do the white ones look LED or like crap?

I just put in all the interior lights from Sewell this AM and realized I need the plates too

Not sure about the white ones, I got the blue ones. They stand out a lot but I love them. But if you just put in the interior lights from Sewell, then white is gonna give you a better match most likely

If you buy on Sewell make sure to use the additional 10% off promo code CL911M.

On the looking clean and classy scale it's the opposite.

There's a reason Lexus changed it to white
