Vehicles equipped with the optional signal lamps (2) located in the outside rear view mirrors (1) have two Light Emitting Diode (LED) units that illuminate an optic light pipe through a clear lens on the lower, forward and outboard facing surfaces of the mirror shell. Illumination of these lamps is coordinated with the illumination of the turn signals for the same side of the vehicle.
