Illuminated kick/sill plates

With not having to route a new wiring harness the install goes pretty darn quick. With the -6GE0A you do have to be careful with the flat ribbon wire out of each panel and with routing it over the pinch weld. I opened-up the weatherstripping just a bit where it goes over the flat ribbon.

Not good. That is the only thing I really miss from my 2012 that would be hard to install. I know they sell a kit at the dealer. I asked about it many moons ago.

Most of the interior trim is currently in my living room. So now is the time to run one.

Got a Thinkware U1000 front and rear dash cam sitting on my coffee table awaiting install after the car comes back from the body shop. Might check to see what the shop would charge for the install.

That's a top-rated camera. If I didn't already have the Kenwood that connects directly to my radio, That's the one I would go with.

I based my purchase on specs mostly and warranty support reviews. When I was first setting it up I was a little surprised the thing started talking to me lol. It connects to my phone and can even do a remote live feed. Pretty slick.
