Think I will go with the bright finish ones. Are they easy to fit? Do you just pull the old one off?

Geez, I got a quote from my aussie dealer and the cost to get illuminated tread plates are A$1800 (what a rort)

They look pretty easy to fix, Dan at Duckworths sent me the fitting guide, if i remember right its just a case of pulling it off, I'll have a look at posting it when I get home (not sure if you can post pdf's on here), if not if you want I can email them to you.

Thanks, I've had a look at the car and looks a straight forward job.

If anyone buys the bright finish ones and doesn't want the 2 rear sections i'll buy them...!
Not sure the illuminated ones are really worth £200+ and effort honestly unless you're really into it. They are nice but

The blue illumination would look fabulous on a blue car....

Do the bright finish come with parts for the rear? I thought it was just the 2 front tread plates you got. I assumed that was the reason the coupe tread plates were dearer than the 5 door (longer tread plates)

It's only the fronts with the OEM ones.

There are rear ones that come with a non OEM version from he who should not be mentioned...

Ahh, yes I know what you mean, I like the rear parts but not too sure about his tread plates, although, but £40 cheaper than Duckworths for 4 parts seems not too bad a price. I was going to ask him if he did the rear 2 on their own.
