Well, I got the illuminated sill plates and I got the replacement parts I wanted and you get a tutorial going.
NOTE: Crossfires don't come from the factory with Illuminated Sill Plates. These are an accessory available normally through your Chrysler dealer for a cost of over $200. I obtained mine through a user on this board who decided not to install theirs.
The original plates come as a light blue color when lit. This is nice, but I wanted to change it to purple (wife's favorite color).
So I went in search of one inch wide Electro-Luminescent Tape. I found it at
www.beingseen.com. I ordered it on the phone so I could get less than 20+ feet which is the smallest amount you can order on their online store. I could not order purple tape itself, but rather they had white EL tape and a purple film to put over it. This would probably work for a variety of colors or even alternating letter/word colors, etc.
They suggested I get them to put on the connections, include two inverters and leave the tape in a single piece. I will probably suggest that you let them put on the connections if you are not able to solder well. I also would suggest you only let them send you one inverter as the second one for me is just going to be used for experimentation on the leftover tape.
Next step was disassembling the original illuminated sill plates and replacing the blue tape with the new white tape and purple film.
Here is the original kit.
And here are the replacement parts I ordered from:
