Need a good installer in DC area

I just bought these illuminated door sills, gen5, and need help with the wiring..I went to a best buy and they said $115 for install that would take pretty much all day, they say they have to tap into each door so they will have to take it apart,,which worries me..how many rattles am I going to have after this?

If you have a good store/shop experience let me know, I wouldn't mind paying for quality install.thanks

door sills.... do they go right on the floor as you enter the car?..... why would you have to tap into the door?... or do you mean the door way?.... it's pretty easy to install them your self. Here's a link of how this guy installed his on a benz

thanks for the link but the wiring instruction is all greek to me that's why I'm looking for a professional install

it looks like on the mercedes they had these 'puddle lamps' so they could just use those, there is nothing like that in 2003 camry

just to finish off this thread, I went to circuit city and they installed it for me , took about 2 1/2 hours, once they figured out the one side, the other side was quick, so far looks great, it's raining, no pics yet

Talking

here are a couple of pics, first two during the day, front and back, the third at night, I couldn't get a good shot, plus my hand was shaking so it's not 100% focused at night, I may try later with a better camera, it looks better in reality than on this pic.
