I have been wanting some, also.
I came across these: http://www.kwmuth.com/products/kits/200-0036.htm
Kind of pricey for me.. I may just cobble something up with LEDs and de-silvering some spots on the mirror when summer comes 'round.

I did this conversion about a month ago. The glass part of the mirrors pops right out and the ones with the turn signal pop right back in the same place. The toughest part is running the new wires to make them work. Going through the door boot can be a little bit of a P.I.T.A.
DRIVER SIDE: Probe the Light Blue wire to verify that flashing turn indicator
power is present. Deactivate the turn indicator and depress the brake to make
sure you have not located the rear turn wire. Label that wire as front, DRIVER
SIDE TURN. PASSENGER SIDE: Probe the Dark Blue wire to verify that
flashing turn indicator power is present. Deactivate the turn indicator and
depress the brake to make sure you have not located the rear turn wire. Label
that wire as front, PASSENGER SIDE TURN.
NOTE: Triple check to ensure you have the correct indicator wire, as there
are several of them to choose from.
MUTH makes a nice set with instructions.

Aww poo. :cryin:
It just occurred to me that if I do this I will lose the electro-chromatic function of the mirror. I do too much night driving in front of poorly aimed HID's to lose that.:mad2:

You can keep that functionality and use these stick on deals but they are not nearly as stealth looking during the day….
