Yes, my brother's Toyota Harrier comes with built in side blinkers. I don't know if that would be available in your US RX330 though.

Yes, you can get them custom-made like mine, but it is very labor intensive and expensive.

It's an option for RX part of Advanced package and not expensive one. About $300.

Robert,

Can the lights be gotten separately, meaning without the covers? Thanks.

Jon can get them for you its like the picture (already posted) of them from a Benz. Thats the only way that I know of. I happened to try about a month ago and the Benz dealer near my house would NOT sell them to me like that.

Are they the same lights used in the EXE ones?

They look the same look at the pictures....... Exe is a copy / replica of the Benz product.

I think its time for you to sell those you have and move on up to the new style.

So do you know if the contours of the MB ones are the same as the ones on the EXE covers?

That company is almost the same as Exe but alittle more expenisive. As you can see in the 1st pic of Algeron you can tell its a cover. Most folks I know that have them fill in the sides to give it a nice clean look.
That way it looks more like they came that way on the car.

I had the chance to put both the Benz & Exe signals lens next to each other. The Exe set is slimmer but the same size in length as the Benz. By looking at both I would say Exe would be the better and ALOT easier option to install.

NOTE:

Questions im being asked:

1. Is this a replacement of the mirror covers........ NO these covers go over the existing mirror covers as in the Algernon pic. If you took off your cars existing covers to put these on your mirror motor and fuctions of adjusting the mirror would not work.

2. If your going to do this on your nice expensive car go all the way have a shop fill in the sides and dont go the easy route and just put them on with double stick tape & wiring in.

3. How easy is it to install......... Its easy for some but hard for others. If you have no clue how to wire them in you might as well have a shop do the whole set up for you.

4. Is it a 100% perfect fit....... Honestly I dont know cause it might be on one car and not the other. All I can say this company Exe is waaaaaaaay better then the others that have been selling the same product. I know 1st hand that the ones I tried to get over a yr ago Lucky for me I was able to get a refund Japan is not like the U.S. if your not happy with the product get your money back.

PEACE!!
