The outside painted mirror cover.

I think this instruction from collegehillshonda would be helpful, see if it works

This is perfect! Thank you so much!

I guess I should have realized you need the lane watch mirrors in order to install the turn signals. Bummer. ?

Hmmm, I don't think it's related to the lane watch camera, though I understand the NA FK8s don't come with mirror turn signals. I'd guess you can (if you don't mind the extra work) run the wire from the turn signals and tap to this mirror. Kinda like those running the unity side markers.

What about the heated function? does FK8 comes with that?

I don't either but thankfully I found a thread with the part numbers for the housings and wire harness to do the conversion.

Awesome! Sounds like a good direction

That is exactly what I tapped. If you buy the OEM mirror harnesses from a touring model to use the plugs and wiring for the housing LED (which also the Mugen mirror harnesses plug into), the pink wire is positive and purple wire is negative. For the negative wire, I tapped the black wire in the door harness. For the positive wire, I ran it with the door harness into the cabin. I tapped the respective wires going into the fuse box per that post you got the pics from.

PM if you have any other questions regarding parts needed and install.

Sup! I'm new to this thread. I just want to ask where you tap all the wires for the turn signals.

Pink wire+ = tapped to tan/gray wire under the cabin
Purple wire- = where do I tap this wire?
2 Black wires = where to tap?

Purple is negative, so tap the black wire on the window switch.

Can anyone who has these confirm if you can get access directly to the leds for the turn signals without breaking anything?
I'd love to get a set of these but I also have the lane watch LED in mine so I'm thinking maybe If I can get access to the turn signals, I can replace the bottom 3 with a different colour LED so I can tell the difference between the lane warning and the turn signal.

Anybody have any idea what I could've did wrong if my mirror Left <-> Right adjustment is not working after this? I installed both sides the same, but can't figure out what I did wrong with the passenger side. Made sure both of the white "screw" looking pins were going in correctly.

Would love the part number(s) for whatever wiring harness(es) you used to get the LED turn signals working on an early-model Type R.
