They bought the newer side mirrors, removed the old ones. It may be a DIY but I don't think it is cheap. Did you runa search?

dude its a process to hide the cable and run it through the same plastic tube that the original cables run through......i did it to my car and another members car at my shop.....it came out perfect.....keep in mind that the screws from the old mirror fit on the new ones but you have to shorten them a lil.....other than that i cant explain what i did youd have to see it being done so you can understand a lil bit better.

Having the side markers blink I think is a better investment (the ones on the fenders).
