I am think of what I should do next to my car and I always loved the look of blinkers on the side mirrors like the newer Tl's and the tsx's. Has anyone ever tried to do this on ther CL, if so was it hard?

I have though about this too. I want to find a set of TSX mirrors for dissection. I want to see if I can remove the mirror from where it pivots and possibly mount it to the other half of a CL mirror. Maybe someone tried that already????

From pictures, it looks like the first gen TSX mirrors might work. They look a little longer than the CL mirrors but I'd sacrifice that for OEM looking turn signal mirrors.

They do not fit. You will have to cut & mold them to fit. There is no wiring for them either. You would have to wire them.

I toyed around with the idea a couple years back...too much surgery and work involved.

Any way to get the blinkers out and have them molded into the CL mirror?

You could do side marker lights. There are many kits out there. All you have to do is drill like a 1/2-1 inch hole with a template & then run the wires to your front signal lights. I've seen some TL's do this a few years ago.
Civics & accords as well.
