Foldable Mirrors

6MT-Z34

Hey guys

I was wondering if your Z's come with automatic folding/unfolding mirrors from factory? I know the japanese models come with that option but unfortunately here in the states we do not get that

If you do have that option can someone please find out the price of the module to make the mirrors fold automatically?

It's not like European cars with the auto mirrors which folds when locking the door. Our cars that have this feature still need the driver to press a button to have the mirrors folded. Plus, the mirrors can only fold when the engine is on which is a really weird design to me.

Thanks

If you're really in Taipei, you're the wrong guy to reply to this thread, lol.



OP, the Z doesn't come with folding mirrors

I know but I also found that Japanese and some Europeans do have the folding mirrors, I just to see if Nissan decided to do that for only rhd countries? And if not if there is a way to buy the module lol

I just saw that you posted in the Europe section actually.

I bet it's for all the countries outside North America where Nissan has to compete with real high end sports cars like Mercedes and BMW.


I doubt its a module, I bet its the whole mirror assembly and switches. I asked my buddy in Japan to confirm that 370s in Japan come with them, or are optioned for them. I'll also ask him the cost once he confirms

Why does it matter if its RHD?

Mine is LHD and has the folding mirror feature. I'll get some pictures of it and the button when my car is back from getting a new roll cage.

Just curious as to how much would it cost to do...it will add an extra wow factor to the car...either way 98% of the time I always close my mirrors hahah

My guess is that it's for the same reason people install GT-R start buttons and other non-performance parts on a sports car - "because I like the way it looks."


Edit: Oops. Got distracted before I hit the post button and didn't see OP's reply.

Hey did u get a chance to get the pics and video?

ilovegirls

The mirrors are going to be reversed...so objects are going to be closer on the wrong side etc. A fix for this can be installing aftermarket mirrors with wide angles..if they make them. Im not talking outta my azz..I did this on my previous car. Also.. for the mirror to fold and unfold...you need a relay and switch. I had a company in florida help me with it.
