very cool idea!

You'd be surprised to find out this is not new.

This technology was shown at the auto shows quite a while ago. I don't remember what vehicle it was shown on but for some reason I am thinking mark VIII.

I always wonder if the trim peice that is as the door sill when the door is in the open position is the top trim peice once the door is closed?

If so that would drive me nuts. I couldn't handle a scuffed piece of trim.

Very cool...
But what keeps your door panels from getting scratched up when grit/debris gets in places where it shouldn't be?
