Does the 2.5s coupe have the side mirror blinkers?

[dc]

Based on all the 2.5 pics I've seen, they do not exists. And what about if it was the premium package? Thanks

Great forum btw

Welcome to NICO!

The side mirror blinkers are only available on the 3.5.

The only problem with the altima side blinkers is that you can't see it from behind like other cars. They do look more classy than some other cars thou, so I guess it evens out.

DC supposedly you can just order the side mirrors and paint it and install it on your 2.5.

The side mirror blinkers are actually quite useful in situations where people on the road are seeing your car from the side where they might not necessarily notice your blinkers from the front or back. I had a situation the other day where I had to go past someone on my left and make a left hand turn just past where they were pulling out, in my previous cars people would begin pulling out thinking I was going past them.

And here I thought they were just for looks, I guess they would come handy in that situation.

How much work would be involved to install 3.5 mirrors on a 2.5?It sounds like a lot of work. When I get my 2.5, I might consider it, if its not too expensive and nissan will do the install.

Why would you need them? Sure, they can be better-looking aesthetically, but in my opinion, its just a waste to add them onto a 2.5. If you're a good driver, you shouldn't need them. Just my 2 cents.

[mikemart]

purely aesthetic reasons. I want a 2.5 but I like the side markers.

Don't go flaming me about just buying a 3.5 please!

If you bought the mirrors and had the dealer install them you could easily exceed 5-600 dollars

If you really want them you could try to install them yourself. Do you have basic mechanic skills and tools?

[mikemart]

Yes, between my father and I, we can do quite a bit. The only thing I would be worried about is messing with the blinker. I'd be worried about messing with the wiring on a brand new car.

^^ My thoughts exactly. I'd be a bit weary about taking my NEW car apart soon after I got it. It probably wouldn't be too bad of a job but still.

Here is link to people talking about it for the sedan, but should be same.

And warranty ramifications? If something happened to your sideviews, you're on your own, right?

what would be covered with the mirrors anyways?
