What's disappointing is that those of us with power folding LCI mirrors still can't get them coded to auto fold :thumbsdown:

I use them all the time, but of course, I have to remember to hit the button on the way out of the car.

It does suck, however there is a module to enable that without coding. I believe it is this one.

This seems like it works because you have folding on programmed into the car. it says it doesn't work with 2004-2007 E60's.

Has a lot of cool features too.

Nice look BLooD - wish you had them when you dropped the HID kit.

Is there anyway of doing this to a car with body control modules?

I'm sorry, you need the memory seats for the reverse tilt.

What year is your car jas? pre-2005 cars have door modules and that's all you need, all the tech did was list my cars modules and options and where it said "folding mirrors"
he ticked a box with "active" next to it and did a re-code for just the door modules.

You know I don't know anything about these things haha. I thought if I bought some euro spec mirrors there was some way to get em to work. Guess its not that simple.
