Illuminated Door Sills

Has anyone tried making illuminated door sills for the CL? I am ordering a pair from evolution, and I was wondering if it might be possible? Maybe cut out the letters in the sills, put some thin plastic on the underside and run some sort of strip lighting underneith. Then connect it to the dome lighting, so it comes on when the door opens?
If no one has tried this, I guess I will be the 1st and I will let you know how it comes out!

they are new in the box never been installed i'm selling them because I totaled my car before I got them.
I paid 108=100 for the "chrom"+8 shipping I got the red S for free which they usually cahrge $10 for it. so I'll sell them $100 shipped
