USA Owners...Illuminated Doorsills: Yes or No?
The BMW UK website lists this item as standard equipment: "M door entry kick-panel trims (illuminated)", whereas the BMW USA website lists this item as standard: "M-badged doorsills".

So, are the doorsills on US cars illuminated?

Thanks all.

bmw1986, it was in fact your post in the E60 forum that prompted this thread.

Perhaps a set of industrial-strength bifocals, or a pair of really, really, really thick eyeglasses are in your future?!!!

LOL.

Ha again. It's really good to have you back posting on this board! It's making me think of 'Mr. Kotter' and the theme song (don't feel bad if you don't know who that is).
