has anyone been successful at taking their tow mirrors off and running a wire thru them for LED lights? been trying that today with a vacuum and an air hose with a piece of string...so far no luck.

I want to put LED light bulbs in the side mirrors for running lights without cutting into the factory harness...I thought this might be easy....but I might be wrong........

The tow mirrors plastic housing has a cover on the front of the arm that reveals the entire guts. It is held in by plastic clips. If you can get the front piece off it would be simple. I only know this because another truck hit my drivers side mirrors and the front plastic on the arm popped right off.

when you say the front of the arm...do you mean the part that sits against the truck's door?

after some research yesterday...I found out what TXappraiser meant. the whole front of the tow mirror is on clipped and can be popped off to show the channel where all the wire from the turn signal and the power/heated mirrors run into the truck. I still had to remove the mirror from the truck, but only for about two minutes , so I could run the wires thru the weather proof foam and thru the metal of the door. was pretty easy. I can email pictures if anyone is interested....
