Possible to have mirrors automatically tilt down when in reverse? This would be to help make sure I don't curb a rim when parallel parking, etc.

If not, are there sleek "stick-on" mirrors I can buy and put on my current ones that angle straight down? I don't like those circular cheap looking ones, but if there was one you can barely notice, I'd get it. Would be nice.

 

Check out KP technoligies... IIRC, they have a kit that can do this for you.

 

^+1

I might still have a kit I never used, don't remember if I sold it or not?

 

lol i have one here somewhere.. i wish i knew where

 

I know BMW have this feature, cool thing but we don't have it on our car

 

my brothers ecalade does this, it confused me the first time i put it on reverse

 

My uncles Cadillac SRX does the same

 

Yea my last car Cadillac cya had this pretty neat feature but I like my camera way better

 

Cadillac cts damn iPhone spell check

 

If you have the premium package you can set your 2nd memory w/ the lowered mirrors and use it when backing out (if you don't have another driver using that memory setting).

 

like they said get KPs module and you should be all set, my bro's TL does it as well but iv never had to use it on mine, 3yrs with no curb rash, i guess i just know how far my rims are from the curb

 

Yah, wouldn't mind having this in my G.. I remember when i drove my sisters 330i and i put it in reverse and noticed the passenger side mirror moving. Very nice feature, which is really helpful if you park outside most of the time.

 

Hmm...while $100 isn't THAT steep, I feel like if there are some sleek "curb reflecting" mirrors I can put on, I would prefer that. Not even as much because I don't want to drop $100, but more because I'd rather not wait for the mirrors to tilt when I need them to...plus, I often would like them to not tilt while I'm in reverse.

 

Anyone have a link to this kit or a diy on installation?

 

my cousin's 04 325xi does this as well...very very cool feature

heres the link for the OP
