I really want to get Power Folding Mirrors on my Fr-s but idk where to get them or if those are even out yet. Has anyone done it before on your previous cars? If so a DIY will be very helpful. -Tnx

less gizmos, less weight.

So i just checked since I thought it was odd that someone wanted power folding mirrors since the stock mirrors fully extended stick out a little over 4 inches from the widest point on the car...So I guess other than having the convenience of having folding mirrors to shave the max width of the car a whopping 8 inches, without having to reach out the windows and just grabbing them, why would you want them?

If its one of those just because things then that's your perogative, I'm only curious because the one vehicle I have power folding mirrors on is my Nissan Titan and well those mirrors stick out almost a foot from the truck so its a convenience for pulling up to fast food windows and ATM's...

I have a very tight parking space between a cement block and an Accord that doesn't know how to park very well. I fold it up so the other dude doesn't hit it.
