Auto-fold side mirrors?
Does anyone know if the folding wing mirrors can be set to auto-fold when the car is locked?
This may be something that can be coded from within Vagcom/VCDS? (just like you can toggle on and off functions such as auto-lock doors at 10mph, horn honk on lock, etc) |
I don't believe this can be coded but I bet it can be can be hard wired.
Basically if you can simulate the effect of 'switching to fold' using the ignition, the initiator (a single relay would do) would mean you can have fold on ignition off/on. |
Sounds like a plan!
Many thanks for the helpful reply +++
That would be pretty cool, wouldn't it? |
Added to my 'Mods to do' list.:)

and mine... +++ but maybe I'll wait until you post a 'How to' ;)

Hi.
It definetely can not be coded. I have a module here, that makes the mirrors fold by clicking on the carkey, but I didn't get it in my S8 yet. But @A8-Freunde are some guys that already have installed it. Over the forum we got a good price on these modules and bought them.

Thanks Chris

I bought this module and the coming home module, together with shipping for 120 €, I think. Chris. ---------------- Now playing: Goldfinger - Nothing to Prove via FoxyTunes |
That also looks pretty cool! +++

If you are seriously interested I could arrange something ;)

How easy are the modules to fit for someone technically challenged like me...? :rolleyes:

The drawback in my eyes is the potential for wear and tear on the folding mechanisms, which are prone to seizure and cog-wear, so an override switch to only make it work when attending parties, meets and other showing-off functions would be a must +++ |
I would love this, also just the headlight washers without the normal washers, any idea if this could be done?
Side note: When someone nicked the headlight washer of my old A8 when I sprayed the headlight washers the water went spraying in the opposite direction, sooo sooo much fun soaking my mates driving into school. |

I always thought it would be funny to connect a morris minor with the fold out flappy paddle indicators to a hazard warning light switch lol |
