Reverse Tilt Down Outside Mirrors
#61
It makes me wonder why turn signals on the mirrors don't generate as much interest as the tilt down mirrors.
If you think about it, if a driver is in the next lane from you and he is past your rear lights, he can't see you with your turn signal on, giving him a warning that you may be changing into his lane, since the corner lights don't blink unless you mod it.
Speaking of which, anyone know of JDM turn signal mirrors? Not the ones that simply go over the existing shell, but one that actually replaces the outer shell.

I just got another email from Yoshi san, and he is working on getting installation instructions and a wiring diagram. I, basically, told him that I would not buy it unless he can provide with this information.
I am pretty sure he will come through.
As far as the mirror signals, I will ask him about it once I get the mirror tilt and fold-in mod settled. I don't want to get too many things going and get him confused.
If you want, you can contact him about the turn signal mirrors:
J's Garage Export
Yo****aka Ikeda yosi@j-garage.com
I refer to him as Yoshi san.

Unless you're an aircraft carrier like an H2 or expedition, side blinkers are, eh a nicety (even though I agree they make you more visible). The auto drop mirrors, on the other hand, will save you about 2k in wheels when you run yours up and down a curb while parking.

Thanks for putting the time into getting all of this together!

I am thinking about telling my dealer about them so they can offer it to customers if they will install my for free. Even then, I still might install them myself. I just don't trust the dealer with my car! They don't appreciate it and respect it as much as me.

Whenever he figures it out, I am defintely going to order and install it myself, though.
