Does anyone know a good way to remove the actual glass mirror on a 05+? I'm thinking aobut putting some LEDs behind the mirror and wiring them to the turn signals. I want it to shine out from behind the mirror. Anyone seen this done before?

I've seen some aftermarket units that seem to have the LED's embedded into or onto the mirror glass. I don't think I've ever seen one with the LED's *behind* the glass .... :thinking:

You realize, of course, that this requires partially-silvered mirror glass, which in turn means you're gonna be facing a tradeoff between signal visibility and mirror visibility ...
