auto folding mirrors - aaronabbott - 01-06-2017
i fitted this saturday evening with the help off the guide off the other forum,and certain members will know what im like with electrics
.so i bit the bullet after a few nervous minutes like i was about defuse a bomb :confused:and cut the 2 wires and in about half hour i was finished couldnt believe how easy it was.
funny thing was me and the otherhalf poped to tescos later that day and as we walked away from the car she gloated ''they dont work'' only for me to turn round press the lock button and watch them fold away:thumbup:
also while i was off work on holiday i fitted my reverse camera:thumbup1:

Nice work :thumbup1:

Marsdendean would someone be willing to do this for me if i got the bits for it? Of course id have to pay you (on this forum the payment always seams to be larger!)
How about getting the bits for it, then perhaps at JAE some of the guys can help you do it yourself ? You'll probably find it's easier than you think, provided you've got a bit of help for if and when you get stuck.

yeah it does initialy look complex but seriously mate once youve got the bits and read over the instructions a few times its so easy,
i printed out the instructions and took them out in the car with me and also made up the electronics before so all i had to do was just cut 2 wires and splice into 2 this weekend if the weather stays ok ill solder it ill in
