[gwagger]

Im wanting to put the folding teardrop mirrors on to my tdi se 130 what would I need to do this as got the mirrors but do I need extra wiring before they can be fitted as don't want to stop then have to wait longer to fit these

If your existing mirrors are electric folding then its a straight forward swop

No the ones on the car are just electric heated not folding

There is an existing thread on this,u'll need to get a new switch with the folding action on it,not sure if you'll need wiring,you can go ahead & fit them just won't fold til you get switch

Resurrection of an old thread! To retrofit folding mirrors you will need the drivers door loom from a folding mirror car(passenger side does not matter as the one from the folding mirror car did not work so tried the original one from my non folding and it worked,if your mirrors are not electric adjusting ie you have to adjust them with the nobs you will need both driver and passenger), the window motors(both sides) from the folding mirror car, the folding switch (the one that spins 180degrees to the fold position) and of course the folding mirrors. All you have to do is put them in and they will work. You do not need the convenience module( if you do swap it your key fob will no longer work) any questions I'll get back to you. Currently working on finding the best way to get them to fold by the fob on lock and unlock. Hope this helps
