Turn signal debate!

After adding the new alarm/remote start this past weekend I have decided that I need more wires!! well not really but I saw mirror turn signals and thought I should add a pair. The only problem is which kind?

Theres the undermount ones listed here:

And then there's the built into mirror ones listed here:

The first link is taking me to an upholstery how-to for making raised flames, but I'm pretty that the second would be my choice.

Wait a sec... I get it now... this ain't to see which turn signals to get (that's a given the built in ones), it's to see how many people actually look at the links.

Definately #2. I have them in the glass. It is the most practical and visible where you need it.
