Actually you can't tell, unless they are folded. But I suppose it looks rather cool being parked up and folded away

Yes, they fold by a button on the centre console, just to the right of the gear lever.

Super, I'll try to get some pics today and post them here.

The only thing that works with the memory seats is the 3 memory positions that you can have, not the folding, which is done by pressing the switch on the centre console.

2000 CLK 430 Conv.
I have 2000 CLK 430Conv and it has folding outside mirrors (manual).

They don't fold completely 90degrees, something like 80 degress but they do fold, at least on the driver side.

On a 430 Coupe, you would have to disable your rear sunscreen, wouldn't you? It looks as though they replaced the sunshade button with the mirror folding one. I think the conversion might be an easy one, if you have a cabrio
