Cult Society do a kit to fit Lupo style mirrors on to Mk3 bases bit these do not have indicators in them.

I've been considering this myself but wasn't sure if I could justify the cost of the mirrors, paint and having to get the side repeaters removed.

If you want to remove the indicators from the wings simply fit US Spec marker lights in the front bumper and extend the wires so it plugs in the markers, job done.

I looked at those Cult Society ones years ago but again, quite expensive. As are their hidden boot lock plinths, cool though.

I'm not a fan of US side markers really plus that doesn't get rid of the holes in the wing as I wouldn't want indicators there  as well as on the wing mirrors directly above.
