2018 Non LED(Halogen) Headlight Wire Diagram

I'm trying to figure out which wires to tap into for the turn signal. I have a project I'm doing that requires the turn signal lights and I need to run the wires from the turn signal wire to it. I can't seem to find a diagram showing that. It's for a 2018 base model so halogen not led or HID. If anyone has schematics or a diagram that would be great guys!

Also if I tap the turn signal positive to
will there be hyper flash? GEN5DIY said there shouldn't be but I thought I'd ask first. The wire is going form the turn signal positive to a positive wire in my side mirror to run leds

Here are two diagrams that might help. Ignore the segments labeled with RPO code T90, those side mirror mounted turn signals are only present on EU/Asia specific models. T4F is the RPO code for uplevel HID/LED headlamps, so I only included the non-T4F diagram here.

Thanks! I'm dumb, I forgot turn signals are soo basic they only have two wires, a positive and a ground. Looks like I want a blue wire from one side and green wire from the other. Now to the question of whether or not I'll get hyper flash. I have aftermarket led headlights and I don't get hyper flash so I'm hoping adding a simple wire to each side and wiring it to low power led lights won't cause hyper flash. I don't know if I should wire splice the main wire or wire splice the aftermarket headlights turn signal wire. GEN5DIY said I shouldn't get hyper flash by adding a wire to power leds(I'm powering turn signal LEDS built into my side mirrors.)

I couldn't find anyone who has done similar but they do in fact sell just the glass for our mirrors with built in led turn signals now and I just recieved a pair. They also include heated mirrors but I know my stock camaro didn't have that option so there would be no way to control the heated mirror part so I thought I'd at least get the turn signal LEDS working.

Here's the new glass they sell, it's convex so it shows more of the view behind you, it also has built in led arrows behind the glass. The glass is also tinted, all things I was wanting because the stock side mirrors are too small and don't allow for blind spot viewing. I also like the look of turn signal LEDS in mirrors so I was like sold! They have a basic pair of one red and one black wire coming out the back that go to the led arrows behind the glass. There is also two metal prongs that allow you to hook up to the built in heating element but like I said the base model Camaros don't have a switch or a hookup for it. I'm also in Florida and don't see a need for heated mirrors.

Very interesting concept, please post up some pics once you got it working. The T90 diagram section is at least helpful in this case. I assumed you knew color codes and didn't post them, but this looks pretty simple anyway.

I don't know if you'll get hyperflash, the BCM will see lower resistance if you just splice in parallel turn signal LEDs... but even if you do, you should be able to add a resistor to your new wire, methinks.
