mirror delete with integeated blinkers

My to do list includes side mirror deletes. They are next to useless and I use the rearview spot mirror to deal with the huge c-pillar blind spot i have now anyway. My primary concern is that they are mounted to the door skins not near the a-pillars. Second problem is integrated blinkers. If I remove one will I have to put a resistor in to spoof the electrical circuit to blink at the right rate or will it act like a bulb is out and blink too fast? I found a good diy for getting after the bolts that hold it on. finding time block to make a plate that i could bolt back in is also holding me back. Any insights from the gurus are welcome.
