Not to sound harsh, but do you really think toyota is going to warranty a light? They barely warranty anything. Especially a light bulb/led that can burn out.

Also, it's a light in the door sills. As long as you hook the positive and ground it right, you shouldn't have issues with it.

What I am saying is it is dumb to pay that much money to have a warranty on a light. Do it yourself for $50 and use the rest of the money to use towards future mods.

I think it is a double sided sticky tape door sill. Last I remember the 07 and 08's had the same style door sills.

For $190, it should link to your door sensor and only turn on when you open your door.

I've got the underbody, the wheel well led, the door sills that light up...and i hardly ever use any of it. I think I am scarred of getting pulled over for impersonating an officer.

I saw the new Gen xB version before. I got to saw. the lighted part is sooo darn small... it makes up only like a quarter of the area of the door sill.

this would be an "EL GLO" piece of material inserted inside the door sill itself. there is no LED or BULB to replace, more then likely will come with a simple inverter and connect to the door switch for on open off closed. looks to be a nice item ifs its as big as it appears im in!!
