try searching for CLK turn signals, or CLK side mirrors...

i've witnessed a member grafting the CLK turn signals onto his GS... (hightecGS3T)..

he's no longer a member but I believe someone purchased the mirrors from him.. and if not.. a member's family-member purchased the car and would have probably gotten the mirrors along with the car...

it can be done but the CLK turn signals must be retrofitted and grafted into the GS side mirror which takes a lot of work and time... and obviously DIY skill...

i believe you can also purchase the TOM's Turn signal mirror which is pretty much the CLK turn signal mirror cousin for the GS. Try searching for Tom's side mirror or something.

Does anyone know if the "stick on" ones can be removed without damaging the paint of the OEM mirrors?

I had my bodyshop do several things at once so he gave me a package price. I'm not sure how much he would charge just for this. It's not cheap: over $1K. Probably closer to $1200-1300 range.
