Default Question about mirrors on 13 FX4

I am going to add some LED's to the mirrors on my 13' FX4, I wanted to make them a running light, can anyone tell me if there is a 12v+ signal inside that is activated with the lighting circuit?

Thanks in advance.....

Not in the mirrors, you'll have to get power from a wire in the kick plates

I tapped into the running light wire located in the passenger kick panel, it's a yellow wire with a blue tracer. Adding the running lights is a PITA but the end results are worth the hassle.

Haven't gotten around to doing the LED mod yet myself, but this thread has some good info about where to get power from:
