@wdimagineer is right, they need to make the rear set. But have to keep them at the same cost.
One thing I will do, I will secure the magnet piece that attached to the inner door panel. Still trying to figure out what would be the best way.
I have a feeling that a car wash guy will accidentally knock it off. The double side tape is not that strong.
@atomic80, have you get a hold of one?

The other ones won't be in stock until early to mid-January he said.
I have a couple left, $250 shipped, let me know if you need a set.

Not yet..still waiting for the one that Chad sent me. Should be here any day now. I completely agree that they need to make one for the rear doors too. I plan to have mine covered by a thin film to protect them so I don't think I'll have issues with mine coming off.

Shouldn't need anything else. That middle plastic part should come off and replaced with the illuminated one.

Here is the video.

Any wiring needed for installation? Or are they battery powered?

The most difficult part is the placement of the magnet under the door. It has to be in exactly the "right" spot to activate the LED light. Takes a little trial and error.

It is the quarter size lithium battery.
That should last you years.
