Interesting. I was very interested in getting them and they acted like that wasn’t an option. Whoever heard of a dealer that didn’t like add ons?
Im not sure why they said the door sills weren’t available? It’s the same part for the 350 and 500, and I got my 350 on December 31 with the door sills installed at the port. The trunk sill I can understand because perhaps the IS500 model isn’t out yet since it literally says IS500
So everywhere online I only see the regular "Lexus" light-up sills so I thought I would share. The part number is: PT942-53210-20. Saved myself 300 dollars and I think they look amazing. Makes opening my door/entering/exiting SO much more of an occasion! Credit goes to @TipsyTonio for providing pics for inspiration.
Install was simple but I took about 90 minutes since I was just taking my time. I'll upload the instructions here but also provide some picture guidance. Passenger side is basically the same, with the knee panel being attached with clips instead of screws.
Front driver side final Rear driver side final. I actually didn't know this came with the set. Needs a paper cut-out to line it up (even then, it's still not very accurate) and then gotta use supplied adhesive strips to attach to the car. Use some painter's tape and a plastic pry tool to remove stock sills. Pop off the sill trim (2 main clips) and the kick panel trim without taking off the weather stripping. Disengage clip with needle nose plier to allow for more room for wiring. More room! Remove two screws and pop off the dash trim panel. Install the light up sills after routing the harness. Follow the PDF for further instructions on where to lift the weather striping and to use a bridge clip (supplied). The tapping and further instructions are in the PDF, I forgot to take pictures.. oops This is what I used to engage the supplied taps into the wires. Zip tie everything up. Tada! Bonus pic. It is sure very bright!
