| Member | I don't know of any but there really isn't much to it. It's a simple circuit. Just add another secondary circuit for each mirror to the existing turn signal circuit. This is necessary because the flasher used in the existing circuit is for incandescent lamps and wont flash LEDs. The secondary circuit needs to have a similar flasher to the original so the timings will look the same. The secondary circuit should look like this: Added Secondary Circuit: BAT+ from existing secondary circuit to FUSE to LED FLASHER to LED(s) to ground. | |

| Tweak Minion | It would be better if you went and bought the mirrors off a vehicle with that feature, painted them and wired it up rather than try to modify the mirror and housing so you could even see the LEDs, then try to mount the LEDs and then cram the wiring in an ancient mirror that's probably way too small | |

| Member | I agree. There are many GM vehicles out there of all different sizes that have those mirrors. Find one that has the mirror size you need and start calling wrecking yards. | |
