i bought the carbon fiber m3 mirrors with the led turn signals. i installed them and i took pics as i went to show you guys exaclty how to install them. only prob is my digital camera is not working so i had to take reagular pics and they are getting put on disk as we speak. the wiring is really confusing espically when the mirrors come with the wires backwards in the motor. what you will have to do is test each line with the wirror button. the directions i got were in japanese so i have winged it. once i get my pics back, i will set up and step by step installation process but i will need some body to host it.

wanna see ur mirrors first

Deep3085

It like the first kind

u can hook it up w/ signal lights wires.. it's simple..

froggystyle14

that part is not a problem my problem is the wires that control the power mirror part. i hooked them up the way i thought and it is ass backwards so i changed them again and still ass backwards....the passanger side i think that the company didnt hook the wires up insisde correctly..

i have black m3 style ones w/ leds...its easy to get the led workin but i could never get the power mirror part to work...even though i tried EVERY SINGLE combination of wiring
if anyone can figure it out plz let me know

oh yeah 1 more question, does anyone know how to wire it so when you arm the alarm the leds will blink with it? mine only goes on when signaling, but not when i arm the car alarm
thanks

if you hook up your leds to the parking lights, then every time your alarm flashes, they will flash too

but everytime you turn on your lights, they will come on too.........

true true well i am not too sure about that that yould be a good thing for me to research.. i have mine on when the parking lights are on

i want some nice LED turn signal mirrors, but i dont want the M3 style ones, they slant up too much and are kinda small for the car. I wish a company made OEM looking ones.

froggystyle14

i have an idea...i will look for some led lights that look decent and see if i cant mold them into my stock mirrors....if you know where i might find some leds let me know and i will write up a DIY on it

Deep3085

So does any one know how to wire the whole thing

froggystyle14

yes and i will post it with my DIY under kleptos site here in a day or so
