Ok here's what it looks like at night....



Here's a rundown on what I got and how I did it....

1. I bought small LED strip from oznium.com.

2. Bought red and black wire. You can get them at Wal-mart, or any hardware store or auto store.... I beleive it's 18 gauge.

3. Install LED strips on the outer corner of the mirror in between the mirror and the housing. I made sure I got them even on both sides.

4. Run the wires through the mirror assembly, behind the door panel. I ran the red and black wire from the back of the door panel through the gromet piece where all the wires run to the car.

5. Finally, I ran the black and red wires to the rear tail light turn signal bulb. This way, they don't glow at night and flash whenever the turn signal is on.

I did the same thing with the other side and ran those wires to the other rear turn signal bulb.. All the wires can run behind the interior pieces for a nice clean look. It's like they were meant to be there all along!


Don't do what I did and wire the red and black wires up in the mirror....... I would just run the LED wires out and behind the door panel.... Would be cleaner, and not run any risk of shorting it out due to rain getting up in there and such. I'm getting new GAGT mirrors for christmas so I'll be wireing new ones to those later...

That's a pic of the Park Avenue mang.

But yea, the Alero was kinda trashy. I had plans to clean it up, though.
This is what the Alero looked like ;]
