Manual to electric door mirror upgrade

[Graham79]

Looking to upgrade my manual fold door mirrors to motorised. Anyone had experience of how to get this done? Spoke to my local dealer who were no help at all

Hi, 

you will need the mirrors, the switch and the control unit bought separately. 
Then you need to replace all that. Wires are likely to be there already. 
There are previous posts about this conversion but difficult to find here. If you search in Google Toyota electric mirrors upgrade or similar they will pop up and you can see. I believe in Auris forum someone has done it. 
The cost can be high and some labor involved. 
If these are important extras changing the car to a next spec level often saves money and hassle plus you get extra bits like auto lights, wipers, and auto dim rear view mirror. , things that are really helpful in every day driving.

I imagine that he already has powered mirrors but those that you have to initiate folding manually by pushing a switch.

He would need to buy a mirror folding module from e.g. alibaba (probably ~£25 iirc) & splice into the connections.

I think icon cars has only manually folding mirrors. Totally different from design and above.  They don’t even has the switch on the door card.
