A warning indicator system for a vehicle includes an indicator for providing visible signals within a reflective surface of a rear-vision mirror, operatively connected to at least a turn signal control system of the vehicle. The indicator is defined by a plurality of images activated sequentially to present an animated image to a viewer. The plurality of images is provided by a plurality of printed LED symbols disposed adjacent to one another within the rear-vision minor reflective surface. At least one processor operatively connected to the plurality of printed LED symbols and to the turn signal control system is configured to iteratively activate and deactivate the plurality of printed LED symbols in response to a signal from the turn signal control system. In this fashion, an animated turn signal indicator is provided within a reflective surface of a rear-vision minor such as a side minor of the vehicle.
