    Which bulbs did you use? I did mine because I couldn’t see crap backing down a few friends driveways. I thought they made a big difference.

    Thanks. I’m still not 100% sold on them. More like 2nd or 3rd choice. They were brand new take offs, and cheaper then a new set of tires. I really wanted FJ trail team wheels, but impossible to find locally.

    Finally got down and dirty with the 2012 sport blinker mirrors on my 08 RC. Had to take mirrors apart, make pigtails, get wiring thru mirror mount and into door, thru the door boot to cab and tie them into rr blinker wiring in kick panel. Had to run the passenger wire across in dash over to driver side to get to rr blinker wiring. All this required door panels off, door sill and kick panels on both sides. Getting mirrors apart without messing up covers or glass was the sketchiest part but it all worked out and now have working blinkers on side mirrors. Woohoo, 1 less wiring project to do! Wiring up LED lightbar coming up next......
