I'm interested too. Are you changing all the trim?

There are a lot of options out there aside from OE. I wonder if any of them are any good?

Also - what is the normal OE price for the whole kit?

Is it an overlay kit, or a replacement kit?

What's the trim you're replacing? If it's Madeira, I'd be interested in taking it off your hands. I can't PM yet as I am new here.

Thanks - still, please post pics once it's all in, as well as your opinion of the quality and installation difficulty.

Yes, please take pics for a DIY
I want to go CF. I heard that the door trim is the hardest because the door panel needs to be removed.

It's time consuming but not impossible. I replaced my interior trim including the door handles in about 3 hours.

Good luck!
