    Anyone upgrade the brightness on their side mirror turn signals? Can barely see it in the front during day.

    Why would you need them during the day?

    /\ I hope that's not a serious response. I suggest you reread the OP's question.

    Most vehicles don’t even have them, so what’s the big deal? I think the answer is obvious if they aren’t bright enough, install a bulb with more lumens.

    You update yours? Or just swap the OR to the Sport? I can't remember

    Lol to add HP...:smack: The front turn signals are too towards the center. Plus I think it adds more awareness for people to know I’m turning. Also, I don’t think their bulbs. Could be wrong though.

    Mine are swapped for genuine TRD Sport mirrors but need to add an extra wire for the turn signal to function.
