it looks like what you bought was just the control module. you will probably need motors and stuff in the mirrors for it to work. unless the GT86 come with the motors? I have no idea, lol.

does it come with a manual? it looks like you will need to splice/tap the supplied wires into the factory motorized mirror wires and a power source/ground. the manual should have more specifics.

Yes it appears that in direct it is not possible and connect to an other australian forum. Try with only "86Forums com au" and then with search try mirror folding. I did and it is OK.You have all necessary to mount.

This is my installation

Perhaps cars supplied to different regions don't but Oz supplied cars certainly do.

This mod requires installing a module and cutting drivers side window loom.

I bought the module 2 years ago and still haven't grown the balls to take the door card off let alone cut the loom..
