Side Mirrors with Lights

I know Evilution stops 'round here every once and again so first off, thanks to him and everyone on his forums. The information there is a great help. And it encouraged me to install the side mirrors with lights.

Following the instructions at Evilution - Smart Car Encyclopaedia i had them installed in a few hours.

Here are some pictures:

That is very cool! Rumor has it the Japanese smarts (451) have the same type mirrors but I've seen nothing to confirm that. Would be a worthwhile mod IMHO. Meanwhile, there are stick-on LEDs available from blinglights: Soft Illuminator Door Mirror Turn Signal LED Lights JDM:eBay Motors (item 260411334132 end time Jun-14-09 17:09:55 PDT)

Thanks everyone!

My next mod on this is to wire up the 2 white leds on each mirror to a switch. This way, I can turn the white leds on when parked at night.
