Yes Wiggs did do it, but it caused to many problems while driving the car that he disabled it after a while.

I'm not sure why you would want this? Can it be done manually on two buttons as a D4 can?

i did it quite easily by taking an output from the alarm to the power fold relay

when unlocked / locked the car with the fob ..mirrors went in /out .

only issue i had was when the car is set for "drive away locking " the mirrors would fold in when you got to 5mph

turning this off cured the problem .

i live in Manchester ..and drive away locking was more important than folding mirrors

im sure if i looked into it again it would be quite simple

Another press of both and they folded out Thumbs Up
