has anyone attempt to do this, putting lights on the interior door handles? I have searched and did not find anything only on the exterior door handles. and have them stay on instead of them being on only when the door is open.

wouldn't be hard to do. Just have to be careful not to pinch the wires. usually hot glue will work in those situations.

why would you want your interior door handles lit up the whole time?

I think if you could get one up in the door handle trim shining down on the handle it would look really nice. As long as its not too bright, not rice at all.

look for an ignition source, probably the power mirrors.

I would do it on the exterior. it gives a nice classy touch.
on the inside, if u want it always on, i would tap into key in power. maybe the speakers?

exterior would be cool, if you could get it to come on when you lock/unlock and stay lit for like 15 sec or so. I think it'd look weird to be driving down the road with your exterior door handles illuminated hah.

Theres a write up for it on here with videos of after. And they hook the wires up to the floor lights, so they light up when you use your remote.

yea i thought about doing that too on the exterior having them on dim when you unlock/lock the car. I thought about tapping into the switches on the switch when you have your lights running at night. will that work? i just dont want to burn anything

I rode in a friend's LS400 the other day. I noticed the inside "cups" behind the handle were very lightly illuminated.
