BTW....
If you do indeed rig up an LED and put it behind the lens, I would suggest using a white LED as opposed to a red one.
Reason being that I once bought a red LED replacement bulb for the stop/tail light on one of my motorcycles with a red taillight lens. It wasn't any brighter than the old incadescent bulb. But when I used a white LED light behind the red lens, it was WAY brighter.

Hello,
You may have a bit of an issue running the wire through the harness as it's a plug-in connection at the door. Twist the harness counter-clockwise to remove the plug and you'll see the way the pins make contact. I'm not sure if there's an empty pin in the harness but you could try testing each pin on the door harness to determine which ones are energized with the door open and go from there.
Good luck,
Steve

I guess the lights are there so some tool doesn't take off your door as you're climbing in the car? My other vehicle is an BMW X5, on that there is a white and red light on the door, and a light on the under side of the door to iluminate the ground and a light on the underside of each outside mirror to give you light when you unlock the doors remotely. It is a regular light show...I'm pretty sire my Estate just has the reflectors though.
