    I have a Blizzard Pearl 2012 Toyota Prius PPP ediition, I have owned it since August of 2013 and absolutely love it, the upgraded stiffer suspension is awesome.
    I can make 60 mph turns on freeway ramps with little to no body roll, it an insane feeling.

    Now to my problem, can any of the other PPP owners tell me if all 4 door sills light up, only the passenger side door sill has ever lit up since I bought it, I thought that was the way it was meant to be but after reading on this forum it appears they all light up or at the very least both front doors light up.

    I looked closely at the back door sills and they do not to be the same as the front ones as though they might not light up, guess I will have to remove them to check if they have power runnig to them

    Do each of them have fuses? can you guys tell me where to look .

    I would think only the front ones would light up. Both drivers and passengers.

    I have the OEM door sills on my Prius. I bought and installed them myself. As far as I know, only the front passenger and driver's side lights up. The two rear ones don't. Some ebay sellers have non-oem side sills have have ALL 4 sills light up.

    If your driver's side sill is not lighting up, a connection probably came loose. You will have to take apart about 2 panels near the drivers' footrest, as well as the plastic cover that the sill rests on (I believe!. getting old here and have a short memory).

    You can easily diagnose the problem yourself. Search the internet for instruction on how to install them and go from there.

    Good luck.
