Auto Fold Mirrors?
Any ideas how to get this done with the remote? I.e., unlock --> unfold, lock --> fold?
Would really, really be grateful, since I'm one of those that do em every single time I park, many, many times a day..
Maybe someone just tell me which cable under the mirror switches that fold/unfold both mirrors? Maybe I can hook it up with a logic that checks "engine OFF --> doors unlock --> momentary signal unfold" etc...?
Kodiakz? Phil? Para? Klaus? F5? LasVegas? Beuler?

Re: Auto Fold Mirrors?
I had my mirrors done when I bought an aftermarket alarm system for my SUT. When I disarm my vehicle, my mirrors fold out and my AMP running boards fold down. When I arm my vehicle, my mirrors fold in and my AMP running boards fold up. I'm sure I can find out how it was done from the audio shop that installed the alarm. I totally prefer this setup for my mirrors rather than holding the fold in/out button every time I park my truck.

Re: Auto Fold Mirrors?
I'm picking up my truck today, so I'll ask the installer when I get to the shop. When I get the info I'll post it on this thread.

Re: Auto Fold Mirrors?
I fold mine many times aday also, not to mention I always fold them when I park in my garage. Would be cool if they could be programed to fold in when you turn vehicle off and then fold out when you turn the truck on.

Re: Auto Fold Mirrors?
This wouldn't be too bad. Would you be using a factory remote or an aftermarket? The aftermarkets offer the options of sending a momentary (-) and a (+) depending on the button pressed and wire used. Worse case scenario, you'd have to use a relay. What would you say your technical level is with wiring?

Dragon, I intend to use my factory remote.
While I am no expert, I have ran extensive wiring in the truck, and very familiar with relays. I also have experience with modules which provide the momentary (-) or (+) when triggered, if needed.
What I need is the cable color/info to tap to/from. I.e., which cable to receive trigger signal from factory remote, and which cable(s) to provide signal (with relays) to trigger the auto-fold/unfold of the side mirrors.
I'm sure many here would find this mod very useful. Any help would be awesome Dragon!!
