Hey guys,
I am thinking of getting some painted matching running boards on my ML. I will prob need to have stealership do it, I'm not quite as handy as most of you seem to be. Do they offer lighted running boards also? What shoul I consider a decent price for parts and install? Thanks
This website has the lighted running boards for 450.00 probably about 1/2 the dealer would charge. If I was you I would go to a body shop or performance shop and get a price on an install like the guys said you will pay a premium at the dealer.
That is about 1/4 the price with the lights of new OEM. One thing ,the early ones had problem with the lights. It took them three tries to get them to work for more than 3 months and they recently failed to light up again. Still waitng for an answer as to who is going to handle what is clearly a defective design.
Thanks Pize98 and Noodles, I will check them out on here, I'm very new to all this, and I haven't worked on a car in 20+ yrs. I have a couple friends willing to help with the lighted door sills, but I will need a proffesional for the boards. Thanks again.
I have the lighted running boards from the dealer. The original MSRP on them was $2000!!
The lights have broken three times already. My advice is save your money and get the non-lighted boards.
