Foot well and rear courtesy lamps

Foot well and rear courtesy lamps
I was thinking of installing a super bright blue led in the dash above the foot wells and maybe something in the rear of the console for the back. I found the correct line on the BCM for the interior lighting but I figured I'd see if anyone else has done it.
Do the LT' come with any floor lighting?

I have added LED lights to both footwells and to the coin cubby between the waterfall and the shifter. Purchased them from superbrightleds.com. Got an add-a-circuit from auto parts store. Inserted it into the blank circuit #21 in the fuse panel on the passenger side of the waterfall. Wired the LEDs to this circuit, ran a ground wire from them to a spot on the dash support structure. The circuit is switched, so they come on whenever the key is on, not just when the lights come on. This is my preference. I pulled the coin cubby out, used a Dremel to cut a small rectangular opening in the back edge so the LEDs faced the dash. Epoxied the LED to the back side of the cubby, wired it in with the other two LEDs under the dash, and viola! Blue LED glow on the coin cubby and up on to the window switches. The under dash lights I epoxied to the plastic heating vent structures under the dash and towards the center. They angle out to illuminate the foot wells. Looks great!

I was thinking of putting them in the removable kick panels and wiring them to the BCM lighting output. It needs something to light up the areas. Maybe on in the rear of the console.
