harveybobbles

OK, so I have a 2004 325Ci thing at the minute and someone wants to know if its possible to make the electric folding mirrors fold when you lock/unlock the car? Cos "its really annoying having to press the button"

Tell that someone your vehicle is none of their business.:rotfl:

From his signature I think he's a trader and therefore that "someone" is probably a customer.

I wish I could press a button to fold my mirrors. Never mind it doing it automatically when I lock the car.

I have to get out and fold them myself.

Doesn't look like you can do it from BMW, but there might be a third party option available - Note this thread refers to the e90 rather than e46

I know that you can get a module to do this for the Rover 75 - a guy called Raistlin makes the kit to do it ("ultimate oem remote", but it involves running wires into the doors...)

I think the e46 & Rover 75 folding mirrors are very similar wiring wise.

They should have plenty of reserve energy from that saved when they don't use it all on operating the indicators..
