2008 CLS AMG6.3
retractable side mirrors

I just purchased a 2008 CLS AMG 6.3. Beautiful Car. I drove my friends AMG 5.5 over in Germany. When I parked his car, the side mirrors retracted or pulled in against the car to protect them. This new 2008 does not seem to have that option, or I can't figure out how to do this. Any help would be great.
I am also looking for a mat or carpet for the cargo/trunk area. Would like black with AMG stitched into it. Suggestions?

The folding mirrors are not a available option for U.S buyers..I think we all were pretty upset about that.

you could have them retrofitted in and installed then have them enabled in the STAR system.
i think the folding kit comes from the late year S class, then you have to have it programmed in via STAR, not a cheap mod as i remember.
there used to be a memeber that would travel then do these installs, not sure if they do that anymore....

I'd love to have folding mirrors on my CLS as well, and have STAR w DEV mode. Anyone else have any experience with this?

No experience, but I'd love to have them too.

PM MJ50, he had them installed on his E55, he may point you in the right direction.
