Dynamic Sequential LED Side Mirror Turn Signals.

Hey guys, just recently decided to add these to my car, but it seems there are several to choose from, and I'd like to know if anyone has any recommendations or bad experiences.

The most expensive ones are from Autotecknic. They are $140 from IND.

Then we have this set from Amazon for $30.

https://www.amazon.com/Dynamic-Mirro.../dp/B08J8683V7

Next up are the ones from eBay. They are $26.

And last we have a set from AliExpress for $13.

Now, I know what you're going to say, it's a BMW, it's obvious which one I should choose, but I figured I'd at least as for experiences because over in the UK they seem to always buy the cheap ones have had great luck with them.

Your thoughts?

I bought a set off the Canadian Amazon, not sure if they’re the exact same, on one side the connector wouldn’t fit…so now I have only one functioning mirror signal. Already had the other side installed, didn’t wanna take everything apart and start over at the time to go back to the stock signals, but i will at some point.

If they had both fit I would have been a satisfied customer.

I'd assume they all come out of the same factory and that one of those retailers is making a nice margin.

I'd go the Amazon one due to the positive reviews.

Are these like the Audi's ? I actually hate them, they make me cringe, like 'kitt' from the 80's

That's pretty funny.

Never really gave much thought to the chasing/tracing part, I'm after them being darker. Maybe I should just get smoke overlays.
