Does anyone know whether it is possible to retrofit the electrically folding mirrors function to 718 Spyder mirrors. I am looking at a possible purchase and this box had not been ticked. I know that with some vehicles the necessary wiring loom will already be there, regardless, so it can just be a case of changing the mirrors, adding the door switch and recoding the car's options to enable it. TIA

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Apologies for posting the obvious, but Yes, you can, it just depends on costs and how much wiring etc is needed https://www.718forum.com/threads/power-fold-mirror...

Thanks for the link (loads of other interesting stuff there, too). Yes, I have seen some of the potential 3rd party offerings (which are quite expensive) I was just wondering if there is a Porsche approved route (like Cruise Control retrofitting, for example).
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
