I don't own but I'm assuming it's as simple as tapping into your blinkers power supply, then they'll blink at the same time since they'll run off the same power source and relay. Keep in mind I could be wrong since I don't own any but it makes sense to me

Well here's my suggestion...get some wire taps from like radioshack or home depot or something if you don't have some already. Take out your blinker lights so you have access to the wires powering them (I believe black and the other is red with a blue tracer (but it's just the 2 wires connecting to the harness that the bulb is in so their colors don't matter as long as you know which is negative and which is positive. Check them with a multimeter to be sure). Run the wires from the LED mirror shells to each respective blinker light and use your wire taps to tap into the power supply, matching negative with negative and positive with positive. Should be as simple as that I'd think. Now that I think of it though are they a true LED display or just tiny lights? If they're LEDs you may want to check to make sure they're already resisted, otherwise you'll need a resistor in that circuit or you'll blow all the lights. I'm assuming they're resisted and ready to run off 12V but once again since I don't own a set I can't say for sure. I'm 99% sure just running the wires to the blinker lights and tapping into their power supply is all you'll need to do though. Should take 10 minutes
