Re: Anyone have a set of these LED Mirrors?
Bidding ended in that link, and I can't find another set via search.. but if its the ones I think they are, yes, someone has tried them, adn they didn't fit very well, and there was a giant fight over the legality of the LED's.... lots of rice acusations too.

Re: Anyone have a set of these LED Mirrors?
I have a set of these that I've been meaning to put on my car for about a year I've been too busy. I got them from a guy on here that sent me pics of them on his car, and they actually looked really good, surprisingly natural. He said they worked fine. Normally, I wouldn't have thought of it, but I have scratches on my mirrors, and I like the idea of having extra turn signals, especially that far out. I reshaped mine to flow better with the shape of the car, also. I'll put them on, soon, and put them in my worklog. Mine have amber LEDs. If I don't like them, I'll take out the LEDs, and put them in some stock mirrors.

You guys probably know this already - just to be redundant -
If the led color is anything other than yellow - you will get into trouble with the cops.....

It can't be hard to wire in orange LEDs from Radio Shack, can it?

What if you fit a really low body kit to the front? Then would you be able to use blue lights? It'll be a snow plow.colinsmx3 wrote:^^^^^ Depending on WHERE you are in the world!

Re: Anyone have a set of these LED Mirrors?
ahaha if you only knew.... The street racing law is BS 80% of ppl get off of the charges since it's INOCCENT untill proven Guilty, since they take your licence and car away on the spot there breaking the rules!shameem wrote:With the new street racing laws - it would be wise to be very careful......
Not to mention look at the car I drive... I never get pulled over, maybe it's cause I drive like an adult and keep my car up to the legal limits! Since I have the Police edition Book about modifications! ehehe
Re: Anyone have a set of these LED Mirrors?
Funny thing, I just read an article written by a paralegal about those laws. He said that technically it's unconstitutional, but there hasn't been any precedent about it so legally they're able to do that and the judge could side with the cop with no consequence.colinsmx3 wrote:ahaha if you only knew....
