    m3 LED mirrors

    Yeah, it looks real clean with the matched paint. Anyone got any ideas how the glass might come off? screwed on? do ya have to cook it like the taillights(which I'm thinking of trying with my old stockers)? Makin that glass tinted would definetly be an improvement. Kinda makes me wanna try it...

    m3 LED mirrors

    I wonder if there is any way to take the glass off so that it could be tinted like taillights and stuff. It might tone down the white in the mirror a bit to match the car. I was actually thinking of getting a set kinda like those only they were carbon fiber. I decided on a seperate set though...

    I thought about the carbon fiber one.I found one for 100. I'll probably just paint the trim black until I get the kit. It WOULD look alot better I'm sure and it would really pull the carbon fiber look into the interior or the car.

    Well, I'm going to paint the front navy blue but keep the rear of the car green with the rear interior being green too. Thanks for the comments.

    Just painted dash

    That was a thought. It would make taping everything off to paint it alot easier for sure. I'm probably going to ditch some of the light blue paint and just go with the navy blue and black. It'll look better that way I think. I'm just really indecisive. But I'd like to get a CF bezel, and get...

    Just painted dash

    I need to ditch the seat covers, shifter handle, steering wheel cover, and probably the green flames on the guages. I'm gonna keep the whole front black and blue and the back's black and green. And yeah, I'll probably paint the steering wheel too, but it'll be black. I wonder if I could just...

    Just painted dash

    Caution: Wet Paint Alright, this makes my little dash project complete. I finished up with the front of the dash and decided to still stay with the navy blue color. It took a little longer then the top of the dash did but it was still fairly simple. Here's a few pictures of the job.

    m3 LED mirrors

    tuck it behind the door panel. the two wires should be for the turn signals and parking lights. if you don't want parking lights, then yes, you'll just hide it away somewhere.

    m3 LED mirrors

    well then if you only want the signal, you could just leave the parking light wire unhooked. I would say that you probably have to hook up the white wire to the turn signal power wire. Then just ground it out. I unhooked the blue wire on mine(blue LED - parking lights) and only have the turn...

    m3 LED mirrors

    If you want them on with the lights and still able to blink then I would find out which wire is for the signals and which is for the parking lights. Then just splice into your power wires for the parking lights and turn signals and hook up the wires ACCORDingly. heh...

    m3 LED mirrors

    it depends i suppose. do you want the mirrors to come on only when you've got your turn signal on or do you want them on with the lights and still able to blink when turning?

    m3 LED mirrors

    well the setup should still be about the same I'm guessing. Test it out. Hook it to ground(black) and then touch the white to power. If you get something then its the parking light. If you try the blue wire for example and it doesn't do anything then its a good possibility that it's the turn...

    m3 LED mirrors

    do they have both the blue and yellow lights? my guess would be that black would be ground, blue would be for the blue leds(possibly hooked into the turn signals) and the white should be the yellow(parking lights). Thats kinda how my aftermarket mirrors were set up

    Just painted dash

    I used Duplicolor Vinyl & Fabric Paint.(got a pic on my cardomain site). It was a rather simple job. The masking off took about 30-45 minutes and then it's just paint. I was kinda thinking of making the front black and carrying the navy blue down into the center console. I should probably try to...

    Just painted dash

    no, the front part of the dash where it's tan still will be navy blue before too long. I'm hoping that with the black on the top that it'll give it a type of depth or something. I just think it'll look cool that way. Another reason that I've redone the interior is that I'm on a budget at the...

    Just painted dash

    Thanks for all the opinions. The colored trim pieces will look better once I finish the rest of the dash. I like the clean look of all the cars on this site too, but I'm going a different route. I like all the color. I'm doing the front of the car blue and back green and will have the same paint...

    Just painted dash

    I just got done painting the top part of my dash. I have to say that it went well. The project only cost $5 and some effort and it was relatively easy. Here's a pic of the finished product. I have more on the DIY on my cardomain site: http://www.cardomain.com/profile/heathan

    Green -----> Yellow w/ White Yellow -----> Blue w/ Green White ------> Blue w/ Black In case anyone is interested in the wiring setup of the lights(it may be the same on yours) there it is. The Green, Yellow & White wires are coming from the new mirror and the others are from the original...

    Projectors?

    I still have the oem lights and I might even try to black them out. The light output on my projectors is tons better than what I was expecting because of various opinions about projectors. I think I may just keep my halo setup the way it is also just to avoid all the hassle. I like the look of...

    Power side mirrors HELP

    I did check with a tester to know what was left, right, so on. But as far as the wires for the new mirrors, I had no instructions or diagram so I just had to switch em around til they moved the right way. I didn't know that about the leds either, I'll remember that though. I got the mirrors...

    Projectors?

    Wait! I'm a genius! scratch those plans up there ^^^^^^. I figured out an easier and safer way to get what I want. How's this sound...? I just don't like the 3rd projector light on with the halos, the signal light isn't a problem, so... I think what I'll do instead is just cut the wiring on the...

    Projectors?

    Wanna try something a little different... I got my projectors and halos in and wired up the way I wanted them. They look great. But! This morning I switched on the Halos(that I didn't wire into the parking lights because I wanted the halos alone and didn't want them on every time my lights were...

    Power side mirrors HELP

    Ok, I figured it out. I cut the wiring fron the stock mirror a little above the harness it had and then just used trial and error to figure out the right sequence of wires before I wired the harness wires to the new mirrors. Wasn't as bad as I thought, but I shouldn't have had to even go through...
