Abstract
Side mirrors for vehicles may include a side turn indicator and in some cases an image sensor and a side turn indicator. Side mirrors may further include a bezel coupled with a housing, with the bezel surrounding a mirror. The bezel may include one or more openings, with the opening(s) having a lens. The side turn indicator may include a light source aligned with each respective lens. The bezel may hide, or otherwise obscure, the light source when unilluminated. However, when the light source is illuminated, light from the respective light sources passes through the bezel (via the lenses and the openings) and the turn signal indicator is visible to present an indication to which the vehicle may turn.
