very nice Javier, but i have a question: are the lights on the whole time while you drive then?
Yup. It's not bright though - it's a low power LED which points downward and passes through a slot in the top of the door cup. Not exactly a beam of light...
So I want to add the LEDs to the door cups. Do i need to buy the LS460 cups in order for the LEDs to snap on, or did you use the stock door cup housing?
^Use your stock door cups. The LS, GS, and IS all use the exact same door cup. If all you want to add are the LED's, just buy the 2 LEDs I listed in the original post, part numbers 81080-30050 (right side LED assembly) and 81080-30060 (left side LED assembly).
Hey Javy, have you ever thought of tapping them to the negative dome light wire? This way they turn on/off when you unlock / Lock the car. And when you open/ close the door. You dont think you might blow a fuse if there on all the time?

They're not on all the time - they're only on when the car is on. Having them turn on when you open the doors would be completely pointless, as the LED isn't nearly powerful enough to be seen in anything but darkness. You'd have to see the subtle light output in person. They function just like I want them to right now.
