I have LED SIDE MIRROR for my s13 and I don`t now how to install them. There are three wires: BLUE, BLACK, AND WHITE. Wondering if someone can give me some sort of instructions of how to do this.
I found a mazada forum but couldnt really see which wires go where.
There should be thicker gauge wires for power mirrors first of all(if you’ve got power mirrors)
If they are manual mirrors or those 3 wires are thinner gauge wire than the ones for the power mirror motor blacks your common ground, whites positive for (colour#1) and blue is positive for (colour#2) the mirrors I installed had the option of amber or blue signals.
You need to tap the white or blue wire into your signals on the front or rear(easiest) or take your steering column apart and trace down the wires that run to the blinker switch. you’ll find a dozen or so wires there and need to turn your keys to the on position and turn on the signal and find which wires giving a 12v pulse. Do this with a digital volt meter or test light. Repeat this for the other side and put the blinker on the opposite it was before otherwise both mirrors will blink when your left or right signals on.
Running your wires threw the rubber door grommet is the most challenging, in some cases depending on the car its easier to just take the time to take the doors off and run some 12 gauge wiring for your speakers while your at it!!! having your wires zip tied or taped visible in the door jam is ghetto and looses points at shows.
Thanks alot helps. You suggested that going to the rear was the easiest. So i would just get 12 gauge wire like speaker wires and trace it to the back lites and find the binking ones and tap into it. Thats all?
