Question TSX Side Mirrors

I saw a TSX yesterday and i noticed that it had signal lights on the side mirrors i was wondering if it would be possible to put these on a tl ? Maybe after market or the ones from the TSX itself ?

Perhaps, but remember.... They are not heated.

I would think it is somthing in the car that has the feature, not the mirrors. Also, i live in FL so I could care less about the heat.

Acuraracer brings up a good point..

Maybe its just the software in the car..

you might be able to rewire it so it sends the TSX Mirror the same signals and makes the motor make it go down and than up again..

I believe the tilt-down can be transferred. Florida or otherwise, I'd hate to lose the heated mirrors.

you know what those benz owners are saying right now right? honda's designers are nothing but copy cats. i seriously think honda should have their own ideas vs. just copy other manufactuer's ideas and put it on their own line of cars. another thing, can't they just have side markers on the fenders instead?

Sounds the same to me? Why copy other car makers such as BMW with side markers? I just think that sounds silly? I understand if the new MDX comes out with "Halo style headlights" or "Z3 fenders" or something to that extent.

Actually the Japanese Inspire had side markers for quite some time, but it was never available for Canada/USA market. Now the Canadian Type-S A-Spec has side markers. I'm still peeved at Honda for not allowing the rest of us to get A-Spec parts!

if you want signals in the mirrors, there are tons of companies that sell led blinker mirrors that look great, for the accord. Those fit with minor mods.
