Retro fit folding mirrors in London

Hi all,

Just bought a 2013 F30 and am surprised to find that electric folding mirrors aren't standard. Anyways, I am keen to get them retrofitted as I park the car on the road overnight and it's a pain having to push them in every time I park.

I understand that I'll need new units, wiring and some coding and am not bothered about having a button on the drivers door as long as the mirrors can be set to fold in when I lock the doors with the remote.

Does anyone know of anywhere in and around London that does this?

Cheers.

Don't know of anyone in London that could do this.....although I guess there are quite a few independent BMW specialists that can. You could try Jason at BWChiptune, if he can't, he may well put you onto someone that can.
Power fold on the fob isn't, IIRC, something that can be coded in the newer cars anyway, so you will have to get a new panel on the drivers door with the button to activate the mirrors.
