Hi everyone,
Just bought an 05 C230WZ and just waiting to get it shipped from Belmont, CA. As for my first mod, I was planning on getting the illuminated door sills from Jerry at for my mercedes.com. They look great and nearly OE. I checked out a ton of posts about installing these, including the excellent one from bensbenz.com. It doesn't really seem that difficult, but I've never used a multimeter before, and am a little weary on doing it. Is it really that difficult? My biggest worry is finding the right wires, as it seems that each C Class has different colored wires amongst each other.
I may end up doing the install myself because I'm really particular about things. But if I could find someplace that would do an excellent job at a reasonable price, I might just have them do it instead.
So my questions are: Does anyone know of a good place in RI or MA (south of Boston) that could do this install? Anyone have any experience with a particular place? About how much would the install costs be about?
Basically, I don't want to bring my new (to me) car and my door sills to some 16-year old working part time at the local Circuit City or Best Buy. Because, in all liklihood, they'll probably botch the job all up.
Thanks everyone.
