Default Side blinkers/markers on NON-US models?

I noticed while watching reviews on the ISF that the non US models have them. Anyone here purchase them and install it on their US model? I prefer to have them for safety reasons since we don't have blinkers on our side mirrors like a lot of other cars.

I agree. I spoke to someone regarding getting the sidemarkers. Getting the JDM fenders is a (costly) option, but possible. Then there's also probably a wiring issue. It really depends on how the JDM ones are done, too. Are they completely flush? Are they recessed? etc...

Yeah I agree. I like the safety of having an indicator on the fender so people in the next lane over can see if you're about to move over or not. The North American bound IS F's don't get this feature, but the rest of the world does...along with the option of the power folding outside mirrors.

I wish it had the power folding mirrors, that would be a great feature to have

Any euro owners on the board? On my s2k, the side markers just slid out. I wonder if they're the same on the ISF. I'm sure you can order them from Lexus.
