Hey guys,

I spoke with hiro today about the mirrors and he said he is trying to get some more info on them for a group buy. He said he would need atleast 10 people. I don't see that being a problem with all the responses to this thread. Hopefully we see what's the best price he can give us!!!

Info on the lights:

These are covers that go over the OEM mirror with double-sided tape. You would need to drill a hole through the OEM mirror to connect the wire to the turning signals, which would connect to the corner side markers. Hiro said that it is not too difficult to connect it yourself, but if you are not handy like that then it would be best to have it professionally installed. I'll hopefully hear from him soon. I'll keep you guys updated.

Default translation

here is a weak translation of some of the text...

" Beauty authority " turn signal mirror Exquisite accent to door mirror With in addition the high grade the high-class impression Necessities item the created which you produce
Installing the product the て which is covered on the door mirror of the car becomes the type which is installed. (It is not spot goods processing)

Sounds like the cover-type.

Late.

Might want to think about load on the electircal system...as sensitive as Lexus is to subtracting lights and all...might end up with some on in the dash area to compliment those on the mirror.

CSHFLW,

I agree but I am thinking that there will be an increased load (impedence) to whatever circuit you add them to. In turn, the Lex with all its fancy computer crap will think there is something wrong and your warning lights may go off in the dash.

Dunno.

Guys,
I'm not really up on the other models, but I believe the LS goes by Celsior in Japan, and the site lists applications for the UFC30/31 (LS430???), the UFC20/21 (2nd gen ???), and the UFC10/11 (1st gen ???). Anyone more familiar with other models, please comment...
Hope this helps.
