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



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:

Movie clip - click to watch



my file is to pass everywhere ok I would like to know or that I connect the wire

Hope you understand what I mean !!

There is a bundle of 4 wires running up from inside the fender to up under each headlight. Those are the ones I have pictured. You have to remove the headlights to get at them. Tap the wires I showed for power - the red wire from the mirror is the power wire for the amber LED and the black is the ground. The ground can go to just about any bolt inside the cabin.

Thanks for translating.

one more thing. If you don't mind my asking, why not just wire to the side marker, which is only about a foot away from the mirror?

Wish me luck guys, I'm going to attempt the install today.

Violin - Did you remove all the clips from the Sakura mirror cover? I'm wondering if it's sufficient to just hack off the one that does not match and fit the mirror cover on as is. Is the caulk necessary?

Finally got my mirror covers wired up and installed.

I'll take some pics tomorrow evening and post them up.

Thanks to Violin for the excellent DIY.

looks good man, is the "white" light really that blue in person or is your camera playing tricks?
