So you're suggesting it might be bent pins, and I just need to unbend them with the car off, restart and I should be good to go?
The passenger side one works perfectly. However, the drivers side one isn't firing yellow at any time, whether I indicate, or unlock/lock (Check out the videos attached to the imgur link to see more details)

Yes remove the cove and look to see if the pins bent! That is what append to me after I did that and carefully reinstalled used mu phone light to make sure it lined up it worked! Took a couple of tries and bent a couple of times, but it finally worked!
I already drove the car to work here in that condition, kind of scared now hearing that there might be bent pins, do I just not signal left at all on my way back? Seems like a really bad idea to use the indicator knowing about this
They bend and do not go into the connector. There is no connection what so ever! Your other indicators should work just not the mirror. Just bend the pins back when you get home. Or pop off the cover at work and bend them back and try again?
Got the yellow to work! but it’s still saying check left turn signal and I’m still having the strobing indicator in my dash s shown in one of the videos, any reason?
If anyone doesn't like the matte look, you could do this.
This was a practice run, but I vinyl wrapped the lens with smoked tint (same stuff you do headlights/taillights with).
I highly recommend doing this wet... I did it dry and it got too tacky (leaves a hazy mark) and bubbly in some spots. Looks good otherwise. I will do this once I get me replacements, as these were defective out of the box.
it shows up as all English for me. Do you have the wrong language selected?
Also, if a website does not have an english language setting, you can use Chrome browser and the "auto translate" button.
I had to clear my cache on my mobile browser lol. Finally i can read it in English. So I am thinking of pulling the trigger on this new one. Do you recommend this over the others that you have tried?
Also any link for a black mirror cover instead of a carbon fiber? I have wrapped a few things on my car in black so want it to be consistent and not have just one thing stand out as CF.
Hi Benzdude, my car does not have puddle light and do not automaticly fold. I took off the mirror covers but did not see the harness you mentioned in which you inserted the green wire. I saw the other harness (please see attached picture i made a circle around it). Do you know what is this harness for and can I attach the green wire to it to power the blue light?
thanks

If your mirror doesn't fold or have the puddle light then i can't help. Try probing those wires with tester.

I just ordered it and will let you know.
Check ebay or aliexpress for black covers. Make sure they are replacements and not stick on covers. Unless that's what you want.

Thanjs, it turned out to be for the mirror glass direction. Even if there power in it it wont power the blue light. I will stick with the no blue light version.
