Nice TonyNo I did the same thing with my FJ Cruiser. Plan to do the same with my Camaro as soon as I can get some money for mods again LOL.

That looks great! Our CTS has those from the factory and I like them.

good job, kits are probably nice, but a good DIY write up like your footwell light ones, would be just as good!

Just wire-up two LED's with resistors (my LED's used 2.2K ohms), pull the door panel, connect it to the window-switch lighting wires (yellow and black), drill a 3/16" hole in the top of the handle well, insert the LED, and remount the door panel. Easy-peasy!

If there is enough interest, I could put some kits together.
Hey TonyNo, what is the part number for the LEDs, and where did you get them as that matches the blue lights of the interior perfectly?

Thanks, Peter

Ones you pull the door panel off add some LED's in to the storage opining in the panel at the same time.
