Sorry jus a tip, i dont have diagram..

surely i imagine that the brain of the alarm has a wire that comes alive when activated,
similar to that on a head unit for elec aerial???
i reckon this then is fixed to switch for folding in mirrors..
all modern alarms have this function its the same as auto window up function.

hope this helps

All you need is an open channel on your alarm, and a relay that is hooked up to the motors on the mirrors. I'm not how it's hooked up but I'm sure that's how it's hooked up to the alarm.

This is probably a really stupid question, but i was just wondering, pretty much all the ones i found on ebay are listed as sedan mirrors.......do sedans and coupes really have different mirrors? i would have thought they would be the same........

YES, they are different mirrors. Coupes/hatches share the same mirrors and the sedan mirrors are slightly different. The bases have different shapes. The ones you're finding on EBay are not real CTR power fold mirrors. The ones for the sedans that your talking about are not power fold, but power adjusting, manually folding mirrors. I know this due to the fact that I searched for about 1 year before I found real 96-00 sedan ferio power folding mirrors. Most real ones on ebay are for the coupes/hatches.

How much are power folding mirrors off of a 98 EK3 worth? i am told these will fit a 00 SI? i dont want to pay more than they are worth, especially considering they will still need to be painted, and shipped from Japan.............

Anyone have just the normal wiring diagram to hook up CTR power folding mirrors? I've been looking for the wiring diagram for a while now....I already have a set of these mirrors and the relay, but I have not been able to wire it up yet because I do not have any diagrams to follow. Can someone post the wiring diagram they used? (the simple one w/o hooking it up to the alarm)

Ok, can someone enlighten me as to the point of having your mirrors fold in automatically when you arm your alarm? The first poster guy says its "dead helpful", Whats helpful about this? I can see where its kinda trick, but I dont really see the point in it.

Well for one, some dingleberry that parks beside you will be less likely to brush his fat ass on your mirror breaking it off...
