Electric folding mirrors

[Rislar]

Hi guys, anyone know if it's possible to get the folding mirrors to work from the key fob, ive been through the coding but couldn't find anything ??

I was jealous when I seen that my friends Skoda Octavia Elegance model (2009) could do it.  I think you need the Electric Memory Seats, not sure why, I think I looked in the door controllers and couldn't find anything there either.

Thanks fella, seems rather odd really, and the only car I've had without it

The folding mirrors came with the luxury pack.

Luxury pack - Automatic dimming interior rear-view mirror, automatic headlights on with coming/leaving home lighting function, electrically foldable door mirrors, door mirror puddle lights, reverse activated kerb-view adjustment on passenger’s door mirror, front footwell illumination and rain sensor - £225.

Electrically foldable door mirrors, door mirror puddle lights and reverse activated kerb-view adjustment on passenger’s door mirror - £130.

So they will need different mirrors fitted along with a different control module and a loom then code them.

If you Google they have been talked about.

I'm sure this has been asked before and the answer was no they can't, only from the knob in the door.

How much more room do folding mirrors give you? On the Mk5 it was only 12mm each side. Hardly worth it IMO.

Also the dipping passenger mirror is a pain in the arse when you're reversing a trailer.

It's not the room for me it's to stop idiots pulling them off like my old Beemer and RRS, little sh!ts!!

My Leon can fold its mirrors from the fob, no help to you but I can see why you would want it
