Folding Top Question
You could remotely operate the top with the new SL directly with the original key (not sure if it works with keyless-go).
I'm wondering if there's such a system for SLKs'?
Mind you it's not new technology as it has been available with Porche since 993 time as an option in Europe.
I know it could be easily done with installing an aftermarket alarm system, but I really hate carrying so much on keychain.
Also, does anyone know how to retrofit the electronic folding mirror feature onto an SLK?
I think, it's only available in S, CL and SL in North America, but I know for a fact that in Asia, even the A class has it as a standard feature because of tiny dinky parking spots there.

Good idea!!
Its a good idea to install a system like that. Maybe one day in an emergency situation it is possible to open and jump in from a higher place.LOL..Kidding of course but still its very usefu.
There are also remote ignition controllers.Thats also fun
(In manual transmission vehicles you can only activate it in N position.)
