HOW TO: Install LED mirrors with turn signal flashers
This is a little how-to install mirrors with LED turn-signal lights built in. I saw them on Virjose's cart and decided to get my own set. I hate leaving my turn signal on and forgetting when I'm driving, so this really does help prevent that.
It requires drilling 2 small holes in the cart's metal roof supports and assumes you have basic tools at home. I'm only listing the unusual stuff. Difficulty (1-5 with 5 as most difficult): 2. Under 1 hour to complete. What you need:
What to do: The kit comes with the mirrors, wires, splicing connectors, etc. Your current mirrors have 2 holes (top & bottom). For this kit, those holes will become top & middle, and you'll drill a new bottom hole. The middle hole (old bottom) lines up perfectly for the wire to run.
And you're done! Hope this helps somebody. |

HOW TO: Install LED mirrors with turn signal flashers
I have my wires zip tied to the frame right now so it only took me about 30 minutes to install. I really like these mirrors for $40.

Re: HOW TO: Install LED mirrors with turn signal flashers
Great write up. I was going to do the signal mirrors on mine but ended up buying a beeper/buzzer and spliced into the existing circuit.

CSS899 - Did you have to get two beeper/buzzers? One for the left and one for the right? Thanks!

Re: HOW TO: Install LED mirrors with turn signal flashers
Sorry for the late reply. I bought 2 but never installed them. Unfortunately they got lost in a move we where in the middle of when we got our cart. I will most likely just buy the led mirrors instead.

Once I saw the mirrors with the lights that face both directions, I was happy enough. I rarely leave my signal on too long now. The dash display has a polarized filter on it, so I can never see it with my sunglasses on, so the mirrors do the trick for me. Also, the buzzers would have required me to cut 2 holes somewhere to mount them...mirrors were much cleaner in my opinion. |

Re: HOW TO: Install LED mirrors with turn signal flashers
@bbbdale - Did you have to drill another mounting hole or did those mirrors match the same hole?
I was going to do the writeup without cutting the wires, but it's such a minor thing to avoid the zip ties on outside of cart. |

Re: HOW TO: Install LED mirrors with turn signal flashers
Pretty sure I used an existing hole and then drilled a 2nd hole. Or maybe I drilled 2 holes. I have them mounted as high up as they would go.

Re: HOW TO: Install LED mirrors with turn signal flashers
Is there a separate pair of wires for each turn signal direction?

So your existing left front turn signal has 2 wires and your existing right front turn signal has 2 wires. So whenever your left light comes on, now enough power will be sent to your mirror light as well. Same with the right. |
