Help with installation of side view mirrors y33

Does anyone where the wires for the front turn signal lights are so i can connect the wires to my side view mirror blinkers? Passenger side and drivers side. Or will i just have to run the wires through the door jam to my engine bay to my headlights? this is for a y33
Any information would be helpful thanks

best bet to find the wire at the fusebox would be to search for an alarm install guide. not really any easier if you gotta run a wire across the interior anyway though.

i see. well my door panel is completely off and i noticed that if i do not connect the window switch harness to the passenger side door that the turn signals lights do not illuminate when i try to lock my car. Maybe i can use one of these wires?? idk. i just want to hide the wires as much as possible.. behind the door panels would be perfect.,

i'm not sure if you'll be able to differentiate left from right at the door switch.

ok got it to blink with my turn signals. Did you also wire it so it stays on when your headlights are on? I got it to work but since there are only two wires i can only choose one. Either have it on with my headlights or i can just have it blink with my turn signals. Anyone have a solution so i can do both?

p.s. my turn signal bulb has three wires, Two red and one black, One red is for the turn signal and the other is for it to stay on with the head lights.

Why would you want them to stay lit? That would be annoying.

I just tied the wire to a stick n put it through the door jam to the engine bay and tucked the wires so they are hidden. Oh yeah and they are reverse polarity so the wire with the white line connects to negative wire.

oh yeah buy or make some kind of shrink tubing for sum parts of the wire because they are very thin n fragile, Also buy speaker wire(audio cables) to extend the wire since i needed the extra length. :biggthumpup: n the door panel needs to come off

Kew thanks you for the heads up I want these to just illuminate when signalling only and I am thinking about molding these to my mirrors...did you use the double sided tape?
and how were the quality of the LED's on the signals, should I look into upgrading the bulbs? and I am assuming you got the Bellezza's correct?

the leds look like the lumileds which are suppose to be good quality like the ones used by brokey33 on his led tails. Mine are white and they are bright, i think there are a total of six. i forget. It has 3m double sided tape already on it.
