DIY: LED side mirror installation

[Violin]

Here we go:

I took my speakers out and ran the wires down through the door




and fed it through the boot into the cabin




On the passengers side I ran the wire through the firewall using the grommet for the rear window washer hose




On the drivers side, I jacked up the car to get access to where the hood latch runs through




In ran just the power wire for the blinker through (red) into the engine compartment.. The ground (black) was grounded inside the cabin. I crimped a ring terminal on the ground wires




To access the blinker circuits, I popped the top of the bumper off and removed both headlights. There is a bundle of wires running under each from inside the fender. The driver's side power wire was hooked to the smaller green striped wire here



Using quick splice connectors, like so




and the passenger's side goes to the green wire here



Like so




I decided not to use the white LEDs (gray wire) as I don't know if its legal to have white running lights on your mirrors here. I may hook them up so I can switch them on/off at will.




Here's a video clip of the blinker in operation:

Hey Violin, this guy would like to know where to take the power to have his signal light flashing with his reg, flasher. Everything is ready but he need to know where to tap to get the juice!

Hope you understand what I mean !!
