Hello everybody your help and knowledge will be verry much appreciated i this one.
I just bought a year old c W203 180 sport edition with Sat-Nav and phone installed, full drive electric seat with memory pack , but to my astonishment NO FOLDING mirrors.
Is any body there who knows the part No of the mirrors frame to order for it.
I phoned some of my local MB dealers, but they are useless.

Please advise:) :rolleyes:

My elegance certainly has and I thought they all had that feature.

Is there a group of buttons above the light switch.

If so try these,one works headlamp washer, and the others adjust and fold the mirrors.

I believe that the mirrors can also be made to auto fold on STAR you must have a button for this

As your car is only one year old complete with loads of toys, I cant believe you dont have electric folding mirrors.
I have added a photo below to show the EXACT position of the mirror controls. Its the best photo I could find quickly and I have added a big pointy arrow to show where it is located - directly above the rotary light switch.
Subject to your car having this, then have a little play around to see what does what.

Hi,
If your car was a w202 c class there very easy to fit, they can,t be much different, can they?

The mirror frames are available but there is no guarantee that your door controllers will support folding. We worked on a 2005 W203 yesterday (replacing all the avantgarde trim for wood) and the customer wanted folding mirrors. We have the frames, the switch etc but the door controllers wont support it so its time for a pair of new door controllers!

Some cars you can, some you cant. some require new controllers some dont. some require a new front SAM some dont!
