Does anyone have pics of the 2008 Illuminated Door Sills?

 

I don't think so yet. They are only available on the Luxury Package and maybe the Sports Package.

 

AFAIK the Lux and X pkgs only have the illuminated sills- the sport pkg has the nice shiny metal ones

 

do youbhave to get the sport package to get the metals sills? do non-sport models just have black plastic?

 

Not sure on the '08's, but to get non-illuminated sills on the '06/'07 models you had to get the Sport Package.....

Sport Package Sills......(non illuminated)

 

Yeah basically it's like this:

X or Lux- Illuminated (Blue previous years, 08s get white)

Sport- Aluminum

None of the above- Plain

 

I have the aluminum one and I don't have a sport package. Although the dealer here said they try to load their Lexus' up with almost everything except Nav and any nav-related items (back-up camera and the auto-parking thing with the LS').

the white illuminated sills does look cool.

 

I had them on a rental 08 they gave me...I thought they sucked. They don't show up until it's pretty dark, whereas the blue is much more noticeable. IMO, it looked cheaper.

 

I'm pretty sure that the base model comes with plastic sill trim that matches the interior color of the car, i.e., black, cashmere or gray.

 

i thought the '08 base models have white illuminated scuff plates?

 

The Illuminated Scuff Plates are not standard features. They're only available with the Sports Package and Luxury Package if I remember correctly.

 

It changed for '08. White (rather than blue) is now std. I'm pretty sure

 

^^^ I didn't mean that white scuff plates are not standard, I meant the illuminated scuff plates are only available with the Sports & Luxury package only. The "base 2IS" would only have the plastic scuff plates and no illuminated scuff plates.
