My Car now has the door lights functional (along with the clear lenses from Japan), footwell lights, door handle courtesy light, and a exterior courtesy light mounted under the mirror.

Everything is wired up to the leads for the Dome light, so they are only active when the dome light is and dim as well.
How hard was it to install footwell lights? I'm looking to do that too, but it sounds like it might be too technical for me to do myself.

Not too bad since we used single LED leads that can be stuck to various surfaces.

And got my Clazzio covers put in. Opted for black outer and dark grey inner with red stitch:

Luckily it was a nice warm day out, so letting them sit out in the sun to heat up befor einstall made it a cinch. Really pleased with how they look and the quality. I'll take some better pictures after they've had some time with people sititng in them to help them fit a bit better, though they are pretty snug already.
