astra mk3 DTM mirrors

[johnsastra16v]

my car is a phase1 astra mk3. i have got some DTM mirrors on and was wondering how difficult it is to add extra side repeaters onto them. i stil want to keep my existing side repeaters on the car. and iwant to know if i can add the extra wiring and bulb onto the mirror

yet another reply wit no help

it wlb b easier to buy the mirrors with the indicators in n sell urs, thier bout £40-50 and alot less hassly

[graham_may]

personally, depending on the overall feel/look/style of the car I wouldn't recommend DTM's at all, but it's personal prefernec ereally...

you can mod the mirrors yourself an, if ya good at basic wiring wire up some led's or bulbs yourself in your own configuration (ie drill them into the casing) or you can buy some stick-on indicatorsd ones now from Demon Tweeks etc. (but they look very much like an after-thought!)

failing that, if you aint fitted the mirros at all yet and aint had them that long, try and return them and pay a few quid extra for the ones that already have the indicators pre-installed, they will look and function better than bodging it yourself I would imagine....

Adding "extra side repeaters" would look ****e.

Some small LEd's drilled in would be quite nice

agreed

probably even easier than drilling holes for LED's etc... up to you tho...

Could probably sell yours at a local cruise for half of what your new ones will cost, and as above - would be alot less hassle
