Default Turn Signal Mirror Caps for LS

I noticed some LS430s that had mods done to them had turn signal mirror caps like the Mercedes S-Classes do.

Does anyone have info on where I can get them? Are they caps or do you have to replace the whole mirror and are they hard to install?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Admiration makes the mirror covers, they slip right over the existing mirrors. Here they are:

People told me that the mirrors on the celsiors are not the exact same size as the mirrors on LS430s so you would need to do some modifications to get these covers fit on LS430s

Thanks for the websites. racinstyle, when you get yours, please share with us how it went. Did you order from one of the two above sites? They are mostly in Japanese. If I tried to order from there, I have no idea what I would land up with and if it would be alive.

Just got them in today. WOW! These things are wayy off. It will take a lot of custom work to make these fit properly. The japanese celsior must have differant side mirrors than the ones here in the US. Ill take pics of them later, and yall can see the final result in a few months.
