My Ride: BMW E60 9/04
BMW E46 / 3
Those Individual ones pictured on the catalogue in the link above aren?t illuminated. All of them I saw - last today at the dealer - were not illuminated.
The M5 E60 might get some but they?re labled as "M5".
Btw I saw the EBA (manual for retrofitting), there has to be 4 holes drilled in the car to get the wireing into the interieur, also all undersides of the dashboards and the B-columm has to be removed. Also the glove box.
As I understood the new parts are glued over the originals.
All this makes me unsure, I want this.

If this:

then they are illuminated for sure. Sometimes for security reasons the demonstration cars are cut off power so dealers cant demonstarte the illumination. Sometimes dealers are not competent.
... But I have got the technical description from BMW Individual... they are lighted

...in red? That would RULE! Anyone with a BMW Part Number? In my catalouge there are only the usual Individual ones.
Today I saw an Individual 530iA E60 with those but they were not illuminated.

BMW Individual is a specific programme.The Individual door sills are illuminated in orange/red (they do not have any others) but you can get them only if your car is BMW Individual (has specific VIN number). Probably you are mixing Individual parts with usual accessories.

If only individual cars can have them, I would like to have them.
Thanks
