I knocked the stock driver's side mirror off my ek sedan, so I bought a pair of LED power M3's, planning to just replace both mirrors. I just got finished installing the driver's mirror, but I didn't hook up the LED yet. Does anyone know where to splice the LED wire if i just want it to light up for turn signals and hazards? I was originally thinking I'd just splice it into the corner light wire, but that would mean my LEDs are on whenever I have my parking lights or headlights on. I think that's legal and not all that bad. Should i maybe jump the markers on the instrument cluster? would they be able to handle 3 extra LEDs? Also, does anybody know any good HowTo's for getting wires through the firewall, because I think i'll probably need to hook them up somewhere in the engine compartment, and i've never put anything through the firewall before. I included some pics just for the hell of it.
thanks ahead of time

 

I did notice a couple days ago (before even attempting to install the new mirror) that my power windows will now only move left to right, not up and down. The motors work because i switched the pins to make it go up and down using the left and right control. I'm wondering if this is just a problem with the switch (which i could take apart and fix or just get a new one) or if its a problem with some part of the circuit located elsewhere in the car. anybody have any ideas?

 

they can be hooked up the corner lights, there's 3 wires that go to the corners. 1 black (ground) and two other ones i forgot the colour. Just connect the black and one of either the other two. Notice if you turn on the ur full headlights, the side corner is dimly lit, and when you turn on signal it flashes. Thats why there's 2 different wire and about the power mirrors, if you got these from ebay thats why.

 

ok, so where are these wires? do i actually have to go in the engine compartment or can i pick 'em up under the dash?

and the power mirror thing. the up/down power stopped working before i even got the new mirrors in the mail. i would normally think that the shitty mirrors caused it but it's not them. once i have time i'm gonna open up the switch and take a look at it

 

just splice into the wires going to side corners
