Powerfolding Mirrors

Currently Vantage hunting and while this may sound silly but I really want this option. One car I'm looking at in particular doesn't have it, so was wondering if there's a way to add this option if it wasn't part of the initial build?

Any experience or insight would be very much welcomed. Thanks in advance.

Anything can be added later, however I don't believe it's an easy process. I suppose you could buy the power fold mirrors, wiring etc but not sure that all you would need is the dealer to activate them. I suspect that there is more to it than the above

=/ yeah you're probably right, and I bet adding them after the fact costs more than the $800 tag on them to begin with...

Why are folding mirrors so important to you? I have them but really would not care if they stopped working tomorrow.

i've got a fairly tight garage, and it's just a nice novelty to me, saw it and really like it.

Even if you don't have the power fold mirrors, I believe they should fold in manually.

I have them, and never use them.

All that being said, I believe the harness is in place, but it would be cost prohibitive to get all the parts and have the flash done by a dealer.

Possible, but over priced...
