If not for me, then it still helps out others who read this thread and decide to try this or ask a body shop to do it.

Actually these mirrors are not for my car. I am doing them for someone else.

I Do plan on installing mirror blinkers.

There IS a new mirror blinker kit hopefully coming to market soon, so patience will be a virtue.

All I can say for now.

Has anyone purchased these? I would like to know how clear the glass is. It looks a little like plastic vs. glass. If they are around 300.00 I would give them a trial any more than that I would just buy JP.

Default Question To All The Diy In My Area

If i bite the bullet and decide to get the Blinking mirrors, who is going to help me install them? I'm not real keen on running wires, nor too confident with it, but if someone who has done this is willing to help a brother out, i would be more than greatful. Might also consider throwing in a little $.

John
