Illuminated external door handles

Oh I see what you mean. Interesting idea.

If you fitted in to the lower handle casing so it didn't move you could heat up a plastic fibre and bend it to shape.

I'm wondering about some logic where if the doors are shut you can hijack the puddle lights signal to power an LED, then you don't need any extra wires. Just a relay or two, and maybe some diodes. Hmm...
