retro-fitting mirrors



  172
was wondering what peoples thoughts would be on retro-fitting a set of automatic folding mirrors when the cars engine is turned off?if so what car would people suggest taking them from?was thinking i could just fit a switch to make them fold in if-obviously if i got the mirrors off a car that did.i could fibreglass the mirrors base plate to fit so thats not a problem.only difficult bit i suppose would be getting the adjustment to work to change the angle of the mirrors still?

I'd not bother, folding in the mirors only takes about 2 secs. It'll be more hassle than it's worth imo.

Not all bm's do, it was a cost option on them.
