I don't think such a thing exists for C7?? I'd settle for indicators in the HUD as the ones on the dash are completely blocked by the top of the steering wheel.
Don't want to be "that guy" that leaves his blinker on for miles after the turn.

Turn Signal on Chime
A chime sounds if the turn signal
has been on for more than 1.2 km
(0.75 mi) of driving.
If you need to leave the turn signal
on for more than 1.2 km (0.75 mi),
turn off the signal and then turn it
back on.
The cluster will tell you as well.

I've seen pics of export C7's with the indicators in the mirrors, so we know they exist.
Mirrors are pretty pricey things for the C7... I think last time I looked, they were close to $900 for the pair. It would be cool to have indicators in the mirrors, but not at that price.

Another non issue as far as I am concerned. Turn signals are fine you can program them to sound a chime if left on for an extended time. Do not see a need for them to be integrated into the mirrors.

It's hard to tell in those pictures, but the Euro turn signal mirrors are also a bit bigger. Some may actually like that, but something to know....besides the expense...

They are required now by state law. Though many still do not use them. It's not easy if you're on the phone, drinking coffee and doing your make up. It's just not safe to reach for the turn signal too.

On the C6 with its normal-size outside mirrors, there was a (European?) export mirror that was larger, not sure about integrated turn signals. They looked huge, like part of a Trailer Towing Package.
On the C7, where visibility takes a far back seat to "styling", I'd like something a little larger. Without having to pay about a grand.
