Is it available? Have been asking around but maybe this model too new.

I was thinking if get the spare set for the JDM CU2 (2.4e) as they come with folding mirror.

If you have any luck getting it please share the lobang.

Thanks.

Do let us know if you find anything that can be modified to fit our cars and of course, retains the reverse tilting function! I think you would need to change the mirror switch on the door handle too.

Bros,

From my knowledge, there is no need to change yr side mirror when u want to install the auto close function. One or 2 of the CP bros had done it and it cost less $200 if I am not wrong...hope this helps...

cheers.

Is there a button to press on the door or it just fold up when you lock up the car with the remote alarm key???

The folding was installed and activated with your remote key. So, once u lock yr car, it will auto fold....suggest u pm bro Alloysious. He did his most recently. I guess they simply install a device inside yr side mirror.

I believe there is 2 kinds of thing we are talking now
1. Auto folding when lock alarm
2. Folding mirror - JDM model only

You need to have folding mirror in order to install auto folding when press alarm button.

I checked $140 to install auto folding but my euro version does not have folding mirror funtion so cannot install.

I do not need auto folding, i think the euro version owner here might just want the basic folding mirror.

I was wondering is it because the left mirror have auto tilt during reverse that's why it never comes with folding option. Furthermore maybe this is better option for euro country as they have ample parking space no need to fold!!!!!!

The South African model seems to have both the folding function as well as the auto tilt function. Wonder if we can get the entire mirror assy from there together with the switches to install here?

I think they sure have....may be yr version should be installed with SR-9 accord instead of using CP version. I noticed that CP version comes with signal lights on the side mirror but yr CU version dont.

So, if the SR-9 Accord version fit...then I think u got the best of both world!

I suggest u check any web site and determine if the latest accord SR-9 version can fit yr CU...if can, I will help u make a few calls....

cheers!

If I'm not wrong, the SR9 is the same body as our CU2. Can get more than just the folding mirror, can get the LED tail light also wor. Our CU2 also got side mirror turn signal wor, not as bad leh :)

Hi guys,i did this feature at Chuan Sing for S$80, it is a module integrate to my stock key with lock/unlock(It is not an alarm,but just lock & unlock device with my car key,don't know how to describe it).

So when I lock my door,the mirror automatic fold in and when unlock,it automatic unfold.

As I don't want to install an aftermarket alarm cos I prefer my car keys integrate with my lock & unlock device and i always have this problem that when I lock the car,i forgot whether I lock or not?

So with this device,when i see that my side mirror is fold,i know my car is lock :wink:
