Mirrors and turn signals

GAH!  Every time I write an email using the gmail app on my phone it doesn't
send the body of the email.

Regarding tires, I just ordered a set of Shinko 009 Ravens front and rear,
and I'm planning on spooning them on myself... maybe with the zip-tie method
if I can't get them on normally with dish soap and my tire irons. $154 total
with shipping from Amazon.  Since I'm mostly commuting with my bike these
days, I'm thinking this may be money well spent.  My Pilot Road 2's are
squared 

But my question is this:  Has anyone ever found a set of aftermarket mirrors
that will work on the GPz?  I can't imagine that the mirror mount is that
different / not standard to other Kawasaki's like maybe the 2000 ZX-12R?  

Turn signals:  I have a set of Hightech Speed Proton flush mount front
signals on, and I have been very happy with them up until now.  My right
hand one has burnt out.  First I noticed that one, then 2 of the LEDs used
for the marker light stopped working, but now even the signal LEDs don't
light up, completely dead.  At $90 for a set, I really don't want to go that
route again if I'm only going to get a few years out of them.  So again,
since the ZX-12R used very similar turn / marker lights in the front, I am
asking if anyone has found a flush mount light that works?  The Bikemaster
and Lockhart Phillips flush mount lights look too big to fit.  But it would
be cool to go back to a dual filament incandescent type bulb vs the LEDs so
I don't have to add resistors to get the right flash rate again.

I guess it would be really cool if I could find one of those integrated turn
signal mirror combinations that worked.

Thanks,
Jeff in WA
