folding mirrors

Hello, my headlights always come on when I unlock the vehicle. I find this not good when trying to stealth camp. Is it possible to disable this somehow? Also I would like to prevent the wing mirrors auto folding in and out when locking and unlocking. Could anyone help?

Just incase anyones interested T6 powerfold mirrors are a straight swap for 2009 caravelle T5 powerfold mirrors. You have to swap over the purple and Lt Blue wires. Everything works perfectly. I did leave all the extra cables for the DAB FM Sat Nav ariels as i may use them in the future. I...

Bit of an odd question, but how do the door mirrors behave on a T6.1 when the main battery is disconnected and reconnected?

Hi, I have a 66 ref T6. It’s an ex RAC van and came with power folding mirrors with the switch on the drivers door. I’ve just been through the coding for auto folding on lock using Vcds, but it hasn’t worked. I’ve tried it a few times but they don’t fold on locking. It’s done something as now...

Hi all I have a T6 with heated electric mirrors, does anybody know what genuine parts are required to convert these to power folding, I know the switch on door card needs added, and I'm guess new bases with motors+control modules etc? If anybody had the part numbers would be great. Thanks Phil

What is required to install power fold mirrors to a vehicle? I’ve got a donor vehicle that currently has power folds and mine doesn’t. Is it a relatively straight forward swap or not? Thanks

Hi all, I’ve had a look around the forum and suspect I have a bent drivers side mirror bracket/pivot/mount but wondered if anyone who’s stripped their wing mirror down would know if there is anything within the mirror assembly that might prevent the mirror sitting flush against the trim piece on...

Good evening guys, I have a doubt, I wanted to see if you could help me, I have an Amarok 2014 with manual transmission, originally it did not come with the folding mirrors, but I wanted to retrofit the car and ended up buying the rear view mirrors and the button command, I made all the...

I recently had to replace my entire drivers side wing mirror. (Replaced with genuine VW Parts) It's manual fold with electrical adjustment. I have adjusted the mirror fully over to the right and i am still looking at the side of the van. When I was on the motorway I couldn't see the lane next...
