1) It's got a turn marker on the mirror which will let people in the blind spot know that you are about to change lanes
2) The light on front portion is functional and good looking
What's the process of group buying because this seems to be a japanese site & indicates Price 12,600 Yen (including tax) postage extra , is this for 1 LED turn signal mirror lens or set of 2
Does anyone know Japanese out here on this forums?
Thanks

Be careful about group buy talk. Per Club Lexus rules, only authorized Club Lexus vendors can arrange or even simply gather interest on group buys. There are exceptions to the rules provided you discuss it with the Administrator who will make a final decision. If someone feels like trying to arrange a GB, talk to the Admin first before attempting to gather interest. Just a heads up or a moderator or the Admin will lock/delete the topic.

Even the 08's do not have these? Guess not, otherwise we would be all over it....

Do they come with instructions? You would still need to tap onto the turn signal wires somehow.
Did i hear you guys right, it just sticks on top of the existing side mirrors?

Point well taken on the GB talk. I'm active on other forums and for my part, I should've known better. Sorry about that.
I get the impression these inserts are for the domestic Japan market, where the lighted mirror housings are already in place. After a bit of research, I think I'd be more likely to invest in these:

My only concern would be the difficulty in wiring and in whatever detail there is behind "REQUIRES MODIFICATION TO PASSENGER SIDE TO FIT."

Also the mirrors from l-tunedparts is a total replacement of the mirror assembly, so do not know if it will get rid of the auto dimmer and heated mirror functionality
I would rather prefer with the stick on concept as shown in the pictures above.
How dod we contact the administrator to dicuss our option if we are interested in buying this part from Beverly

The japanese version of right hand side mirror comes with a motor to close/open the mirror and apparently it is not easy to fit it to the US version.
That is why the sentence "REQUIRES MODIFICATION TO PASSENGER SIDE TO FIT." Also one of my friend tried to get this done at a Lexus dealer and they informed him it may void the warranty because they have to alter the wiring to accomodate the motor to open & close the mirror.
