PostSubject: Led turn signals on mirrors   Tue Mar 09, 2010 12:26 am

Just wanted to say that the Vectra Light, break,turn and running lights are fantastic! It took only about 1 hr to install and worth spending a little more for my safety. I don't know if I would have ever found them if it were not for this honda forum.

I have been looking for the mirrors with the turn signal light. Can you give more detail on where to purchase them?

Look for Vectra light.

They make a lot of cool stuff for bikes.

I am not looking for an add on light. I want a mirror with the built in signal in the back of the mirror.

No, I am looking for the mirrors with the "light lens" on the back of the mirror so on coming traffic can see your turn signals.

Hi Dave,

Have you taken look on EBay. I just looked and they list a bunch of turn signal lighted mirrors there.

Sorry I could not be more help to you. Rolling Eyes

Went through 464 mirrors but not what I am looking for. I just know someone in Canada had a pair showing here a bout three weeks ago but did not have the time to search them then and when I came back to them I could not find them again.

Old Dave,

Take a look at these - might be what you're looking for:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Honda-Dominator-PCX125-FJS600-Silver-Wing-10mm-INTEGRATED-LED-MIRRORS-BLACK-/220944504148?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3371519554&vxp=mtr

Dennis B - I had Muth mirrors on my GL1800 Goldwing - nice (but expensive) farkel bought for the safety factor to let cagers next to or behind me be aware of lane changes or impending turns.

I had a look, you'll get an even better view of your shoulders with these. The overall length of the LED mirrors is 10.75", the OE Silver Wing mirrors are 2" longer at 12.75".

Goodness Dennis! I knew they had to be somewhere. They were shown on this Forum a few weeks ago but I could not find them to save my "gizzard."
Thank you much....

I ordered the mirrors so will see how they do when they get here. I do have extensions I made and could make new ones if I need to. I think from the looks of them they will be very sufficient. Hopefully I can put the L.E.D light on the front as well. Will see!
Smile Old Dave

Thank all who helped with finding them

Have you fitted your mirrors yet, if so do they do the job and look good?

Yes, I have them on and like them better than the stock mirrors. And NO I don't get a better view of my shoulders. They are much better so don't hesitate to put them on your Swing. I thing they are well worth it!

Apart from being another unnecessary farkle to tart up the Swing, what advantage do these things have over the stock mirrors and indicators/turn signals? scratch

There may be no practical advantage at all.
All these farkles may just bring a Swing owner a sense of individuality and uniqueness.

Why are all cars not painted same colour?

I like those honda dominator mirrors, but if I were to get them, I'd probably wire in a small red LED on the black space between the ball joint of the mirror arm and the glass itself.

Nothing fancy, just an extra something more at eye level that reminds me the blinker is on.

I'd say it's more to do with the majority of us being a bunch of old boys with a bit of money to spend on toys. Smile

How true. Now that I'm fully retired, I've got to watch the wallet more carefully. I can't just jump at something that looks cool to try.
Do I spring for something that may be just farkle, or save for a longer winter get-a-way?
