Getting your 09 mirrors to fold in like the 08

I tried doing this before on my car and eventually it didnt work. I bought the switch and the 08 mirrors and someone tried to program them to work but it wasnt accomplished. Has someone done this or knows someone that can get this done. I would love to have that feature on my car. Can someone help me please. Thanks

MBUSA decided to decontent US '09's by deleting this great feature.

I hate it when they do that !

Umm the 08' mirrors don’t fold, neither do the 09's obviously... Maybe the 2010 models will have that feature then you can install it... I’m sorry but you wasted your money on the 08 mirrors

Well I am sure if u go to a good aftermarket custom shop u can get it done but it will cost u a pretty penny.

MBUSA is being a bit Frenchy toward its U.S. customers. No Offense To The French! J'adore le francais!
