i definitely like that who's the guinea pig?
Interesting... so these give you the blind spot indication on the mirror housing instead of just on the mirror glass? Or is it in addition to the mirror glass?
This version would, I assume, be easier to see than the mirror glass indication, and probably visible in your peripheral vision as well. If they weren't chrome I would be tempted.
I would imagine the harness connects to the existing BSM connector, both probably light up but I’m okay with abandoning that ridiculously small OEM BSM LED if that’s the way it is. You could always paint them any color needed. Gloss Black in my case. Hmmm.. good find.
Where is the blind spot detection module Located? I submitted a request for installation instructions since none were posted.
Already had an Arteon owner (and former MK7 owner) tell me the caps are way different shape and size so I'm not sure the lights would line up properly.I think these could easily tap into the existing wire feeding the mirror BSM light. Not sure if the internal metal guts of the mirror housing are the same on the Golf vs. Arteon. We need a guinea pig. Looking around Ebay for used Arteon mirrors (without caps) to compare the internals.
