Those look pretty good, I like em!

Usually all the wiring is there even if the optional part isn't (In this case the kick plates) so they shouldn't be too difficult to install.

I saw them in person I really like them. I don't care what people think, I love them. Most of the cars that I saw had them already installed and cost $200 on top of MSRP.

I'm sorta hoping it doesn't come pre-installed when I get mine, so I can look forward to a group like EVO-R to do something similar or better. White LED illumination is something I'd like. Otherwise, I'd pull it apart and change out the LED. :-D

For $200 I think it's a good deal and I definitely plan on getting them.

Service manual contains "detailed instructions" on transmission, engine, tire pressure sensor, electrical, and should show info., on the kick plate.

One problem: I forgot, I think you have to buy the CD/DVD,... sorry.
I think it cost $150.00 or 200.00, not sure!
It's the "Chilton manual" for Z's!
