Editing Power-fold Mirrors (section)

==Retro-fitting==

The only difference between cars fitted with or without power-fold mirrors is the switch fitted in the drivers side door panel. All cars are fitted with the necessary motors and wiring from the factory.

The Power-fold switch is Lotus Part Number A132M6068F and can be ordered from [http://www.deroure.com/partinfo.asp?MAK=1&MDL=20&TBL=1871&SMA=0&SMO=0&ST=&SC=0&PBID=50202 DeRoure for £42], however the part is originally from the Ford parts bin (Ford Part Number 1S7T-17B676-AA) and is used in a variety of cars such as the Ford Mondeo Mk3, Focus Mk III/IV and Fiesta Mk8.

At the time of writing the switch is also available for under £20 from the ebay seller [http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/mondeospares/ Mondeospares], under the title "FORD MONDEO MK3 POWERFOLD ELECTRIC WING MIRROR SWITCH 2004 - 2007". The seller has been reported as accepting 'Best Offer' bids of £12 + pnp (edit 30/5/14 - accepted £15, refused £13)

Fitting is simply a case of prising out the old switch with a small thin screwdriver wrapped in paper towels to protect the leather and, being careful not to damage the trim, lifting it up and out. Once the switch is out use the screwdriver to release the switch connector latch and unplug it.

To reassemble simply plug in the connector, line up the switch and push it back down in the the hole. The clips on the side will fix it in to position.
