Its really hard to get any kind of design on these unles you use a whole lot of very small LED's

Oh this was just spam I deleted. But Since I posted I'll make my peace...
Not a big fan of anything other than 1 piece I'm moving that direction markers.
Stuff on the mirrors and honestly stuff like you said, unless it blends just annoyes me. While I think it could be cool if it doesn't syn right it just kinda makes me wanna feed you 2 day old chicken mc nuggets, without sauce.
I guess I'm a big fan of the one blinking side says you're going that way school of thought. Course I'm a computer geek so if you meld it right I might rethink that.

I think he's saying he doesn't like the lights in the mirrors.... he just likes the normal way where you just have either the tail light or a turn signal light on the back and nothing else... not a bunch of flashes from different spots on the car..

I KINDA agree to that, but I really do like the LED blinkers in the side mirrors.... They are nice for when you are on the highway and you have someone on the other lane you need to merge on, they may not see the tail end of the car, but they will see the blinker in the side mirror and be nice and back off a bit so you can merge.

as far as the middle brake light, I still think it's kinda weird to have blinkers in it... I mean, yeah you tend to look at that first, but if someone is in a TURN lane, then obviously they are turning that way, and if they are turning off a road, you would see them brake, then see that they are turning by the signal off to the side..... unless you have tunnel vision, thus you shouldn't be driving.

What he says, guess I just got used to our SoCal signals, or lack there of.
Round here more signals just means more money and you think people respect that. (1/10 people don't have a licence round here). Guess I should repespct it but around here it would be the same people who put cams in their cars to auto report speeders of 2mph to protect their children. Who in California, may or may not belong to the mother... and she's not sure...WTF...
WTF!?! Spam of your thread...
I don't like the idea but if is your test run, then run it. Guessing this is a predicesor to something greater, like cascading lights, that might catch on. If not you can join me in being proud of your flinstone interior.

I like the idea of blinkers in the side view mirrors..of course there are a hundred different ways to do it and one or two that works..I may give it a shot this summer but not now. I don't get passed much on the road so generally speaking people are always behind me..LOL. If anyone can't see the tail lights of a car and the side mirror at the same time then they don't need to drive either...cause they are mistaken a truck for a car...
