Looking to get electric folding wingmirrors, has anyone done this or had it done by a company?

Thanks,

You can find a link to that in this thread:

Yes some of us have indeed done it, I.e. (but not limited to) ciclo and myself as mentioned above. Long story short is you need two folding wing mirrors, the window regulators from the correct car (in your case RHD, with the folding function), the knob and some wires added to your door wiring loom.

I was kind of hoping to find a company to do it, I have a feeling I'd end up ruining the car.
