Hi, I bought a 2nd hand car and it came with this side mirror with LED. One side is blown so I need to find replacement, but I have no idea where to get... anyone came across this before?

This is not the one for Hyundai i30 CW as I checked, and it's not original parts but aftermarket instead.

Thanks.

Unusual for LED to "blow" I suspect a wiring issue.

It's really blown / burned out, had car mechanics to open up and check. No issue with the wiring T_T  :(

I would test those leds before doing anything else. They should not have blown.

If they're a proper commercially available module, the required resistance should be built into the module. I wouldn't expect anyone to have to calculate and add a load to limit the current. But that is the issue with LEDs. They should not blow unless the current is exceeded. :head_butt:

Thanks for the kind replies,  I will get another mechanic to check it out when I'm available. 

As the car originally does not comes with it, it's nothing major but it looks weird with only one side indicator working.
