Technical Automatic foldin mirrors

[Baggey]

So dosent look like pandar did these. Does fiat 500 or punto or something do them? Looking to do a Bespoke retro fit?

 

[koalar]

Option on some models

In older cars multipa and bravo

More modern 500x and 500l

Probably others

Probably was a costly option so there will not so many around second hand, I think

Punto has automatic foldin mirrors when son hits a fence with wing mirror

Like the sound of your retro fit.

Have you got a piccy of them? Might give me some ideas. On my Axgt i used DTM mirrors and fitted Escort MkIV Motors inside them for the up/dw/lt/rt but its the rotating bit open 'n' close i suppose id only need 2 wires and switch polarity but @koalar might know different?

I suppose when you've been on the Vino Tinto and have narrow streets you need good mirrors!

Here ya go.

As an aside do you have any advice regrarding blind spot mirror adapters?

There are a few modern cars that do away with mirrors and instead have cameras, i've seen just 2 cars like this in my life so far.

LOL. I'll tell him to get onto it He's on the "drive in the gutter in second gear" stage, while other drivers beep their horn

Only the car that my son drives gets the priviledge of a front facing camera, would be nice to get a rear one too, but i can't easily power it.
