Finally got my set back from the painters. How was the white light wired in? Directly to the light switch?

I don't know. Our wiring guru at our shop did it. From what he said it was a little complicated.

I will be wiring mine to a source that provides 12v when the lights are on. That may be a wire to a parking light, or under the dash or underhood fuse panel on the passenger side.

I'm wondering how the blinker turns off the white light if there both wired in or is it something within the light

It's done internally.

I have finished installing my mirrors, but haven't wired them yet. I will start a new thread with DIY etc.

There was something about low constant power run throughout the car which is like a system check. When he first installed it the white light stayed on with the car off.

Thanks for all of the info Guys!

Ibintab, do yours come on with the headlights if they re set in the auto position or all of the time that the car is on?

These housings look Very Cool and I might have to give them a try, but wiring stuff up isn't strongly in my wheel house.

The white light comes on with the park lights. The blinker always blinks if those lights are activated with either the turn signals or hazard lights.

I have the other design of the AVEST mirror ,this is the sequential turn signal. I got them from a clearance sale in japan . They were unpainted . I attached the instructions in Japanese . the only thing missing in the instructions is the turn-signal tap location , which is in the flasher relay pin 1 and pin 3 . Will update when installed.
