I will be adding the Puddle Lights under the door once they come in... backordered.
Still need to hook up the Directionals in the mirror glass, wires are almost there.

I really thought about doing this, it looks to be a simple mod, with good return.  I was going to do the lights under the mirrors, so it would light up when you hit unlock on the fob

My son installed "puddle lights" in his 06 mirrors, along with turn signal LEDs and heated glass.  Sadly, those mirrors didn't survive the roll-over accident back in June.  They were really nice, would light up the area around the door rather well.  I agree, a good return on investment/worthwhile mod.
I was going to add the Puddle Lights to the mirrors but I felt the room in the Mirror Body wasn't enough, the area closer to the door (the swivel mount) was available but as I said before I thought the lights (VLEDS) would give better light if mounted under the door.
I haven't checked the space between the door bottom and the sill but I will before starting the project. 
The VLEDs are very slim and the Bezel is 2 mm = .07+... just over 1/16th of an inch (.0625").
At that thickness I don't think there will be a problem.
