My Ride: 2009 550i sports, Nav, logic Best E60 yet
2004 545i, sports pkg, logic 7 steptronic, rear shade,orient blue with beige interior, blue tooth enabled Razer Phone. 2004 X5 3.0, sports pkg, stepronic, summer pkg. imola red.
2006 Mini Cooper S, manual, sports, prem pkg, nav and kitchen sink.
Does anybody know if you can have either the illuminated door sills or the bumper sensers installed by your local dealer? The bumper sensers are really a great item, I have them on my X5, unfortunatly my 545i did not come with them. The door sill lites are very cool.

install pdc after you p/u the car is not a good idea. the dealer can install only the back sensors, not the front. it only has the beeps, no graphic on the idrive screen. and it's expensive :'(. iceman has illuminated door sills and he posted some pics in his gallery. you might want to check it out. i know they aren't cheap neither :'(.

The door sills installed are about the same price of new rims and tires!!!

Just use a flashlight to illuminate the door sills. It's cheaper. Then upgrade your rims/tires with the money you save.

My Ride: E60 "Stripper"
Now C6 "Stripper"
Personally i believe that if you purchased the door sills on a new car purchase transaction they would be covered under the new car warranty and you should not be charged for the installation! For PDC being installed at the factory is better than at the dealer.
