Folding mirrors on lock!!!

Finally someone came out with a solution to this! Ordered and installed this module and now double clicking the lock button folds the side mirrors!

I got it from this Taiwanese company online. Took about a week to get

I used credit card to pay. i use a card where i can lock it and no other purchases can be made when i lock it with my app.

Install is pretty easy, instructions are very clear.

Good Luck!

Howie,

Hope you have time for a quick question.

Did you already have power folding mirrors on your car? What year/model and build date is your car?

The carista does it and i have it selected on mine as i have the power fold in mirror option from the factory but my key fob is almost dead from the car setting over the winter. Once i get it chanrged i will report back, i also have the auto up windows working and the windows close on the button hold. I have tested those to work.

Pretty much is a simple version of a coding dongle for MINI. Like on/off buttons. Door/window/remote Dings/display Lights then Other.

Its like the "Iphone" of coding/OBD2 but cannot do custom coding like an NCS expert. Make sense?

Its diagnosis simple, but not like the in depth Schwaben tool. More like basic OBD2 tool/

Jumping on this before I buy the $175 kit there..
@ECSTuning
I thought the 2012 did NOT have the module to enable auto fold from fob. I thought that was a 2013+ feature. (or maybe its a confort access feature, which.. well. poop)
I know you can fold them with the dial inside, but I really thought it required a module to do it. (I tried with ncs expert with no luck on my 2012 R60)

You have to have the power fold in mirror standard and then you can I have power fold in on my 2012 R58 JCW factory. On aftermarket set ups I dont know if it will work.
