I've got everything installed and wired, but the green wire (in passnu2's pic) is definitely not the passenger side turn signal in my '07. It lights up the leds with a steady 12v, while the other signals flash normally. The yellow (drivers side) works like a champ though.
Any thoughts on finding the correct wire?

Yes, there are several greens for sure, but only one thick green as you described in post #65.
How did you test to find which wires in the first place? I don't want to start cutting into wires just to test them unnecessarily if there is a less intrusive way.

You want to get a test light form pep boys or wherever, and poke through the insulation rather than cutting

^ sorry I wasnt back on. Yes I had a volt meter to test the wires. No guessing.
Post back if you have issues. Will help you figure it out. All the wire diagrams I saw showed the models where the same so I will be shocked if its truly different.
Cant wait to see them

Finished this up over the weekend. I think it looks great, and I prefer the style to the OEM LED mirrors (not a big fan of plastic chrome).
btw, there was a second thick green wire under the sill.
Thanks again, guys.

Paint
I'm thinking about getting this JDM side mirror lights for my 07 GS350. However, i'm not sure what color to tell the vendor the paint. I have a white (starfire pearl white is the correct name?)

Unrelated, sort of. But, my passenger side door has been creaking a bit lately. I think that perhaps after I got the tint done last winter, that they must not have tightened up that panel very well?
Just wondering, is there any chance that those two screws that hold the door could cause this or is it another one of those kinds of things I'll have to live with because it will be impossible to figure out.

Is it the driver or passenger door? My passenger door rattles when I play the music semi loud. I have yet to see what is causing it and if I can resolve it. You can always try to take it off and see if you can find it but it may make it worse

Passenger door. I never hear anything from the drivers side but I've got creaks sometimes on the passenger side.
