led turn signals

[Bert Man]

I was planning on swapping out the front and rear turn signal amber bulbs for white leds. I found in the service manual that the turn signals in the mirrors are already led. Has anyone opened the mirrors up to see if the bulbs can be taken out?

It would probably look pretty dumb with white front/rear bulbs and amber mirrors if those bulbs cannont be swapped out

Are white light turn signals legal in the U. S. ?

Believe those are custom LED strips but have not personally looked at them. The strip probably consists of SMD chips which you cant simply replace. Similar to the gauge cluster where they have to be de-soldered and have new ones soldered in place. IMO not worth messing with.

yes they are led strips and appear to be a non serviceable item. oh well
