Hi, I want to tint the side mirror blinkers on the 07+08 TL's. Does anyone know how to remove the clear plastic on them so I can tint it without having to leave it on the car? Thanks

 

I have an 07 TL-S. So as you know, it comes w/ the side mirror blinkers.
I took mine to a shop and changed the led bulbs inside from stock yellow to SUPER WHITE.

 

Search on how to clear your headlights. If you don't want to open them the only other option is to get bluebat's tinted headlight overlays

 

I think he's asking about the covers for the signals in the mirrors.

 

yes, thanks rocky for the input, but what I'm asking for is on the front of the side mirrors on 07+ models

 

Oh ya, I'm a dummy. Sorry for speedreading.....

But bluebat does sell tint for the mirrors too.

 

Hey pumba, do you remember what size the side mirror bulbs are, and what brand bulbs did you use?

Thanks.

 

To remove the cover is easy, just 2 or 3 screws on the bottom of the side mirror housing, take them out and pop the housing out, then there is 1 screw or 2 that holding the led light on to the lens housing.

 

Thanks, wingt!

 

you sir are a liar. i just fucked up my enter mirror trying to do this and got NO WHERE!!!!!!

 

there is only 1 screw and if you try to start "popping" the damn mirror off, then you fuck up your entrie mirror housing because it's all plastic.

 

Wow that sucks^!!!Pics of the damage??

 

I have a 08-S I took am interested in knowing how to take the mirror housing apart... Would be slick to change the bulbs to superwhite LEDs however, mine seem to be a strip of LED's... Besides they are only on when turning...

Tinting the inside of the lenses would be nice rather than smoking them...

 

behind the mirror are clips holding the glass in place. Put a flat tip screw driver behind the mirror glass and twist slowly and it should pop off. After that i believe there are two screws that hols the light bar in place. In order to change the color of the leds, you need to cut open the housing, *I did this*. But in order to tint it, it will take some work and will most likely be better off just keeping it attached and place the tine on while it is still on the housing.
