I will do a diy on this in the next few weeks but essentially you can "tap" into the fuse under the dashboard that turns the puddle lights on. No cutting or splicing necessary hardest part will be removing the trim and running wire (only the front illuminate) so not too difficult and you don't need to disassemble the dash. All of this is reversible and if you blow anything it would be the fuse which would be a cheap replacement (highly unlikely since they are LEDs ).

I purchased a pair of sewell for $200 and let me tell you they are worth it, really set the car off I get complements all the time.
I saw the download instructions from Sewell and I think you're right. Although the instructions are a bit spotty, it may not be as difficult as I thought. It's the way they show the wiring and how it should be located and placed is hard to figure until you start the work, I guess. I'm also all thumbs removing trim pieces. I tend to break the tabs and then lose the secured fit. I'll wait for your video and decide.

FYI I wouldn't use magic eraser on my car, essentially you are using a fine sandpaper.
