im def interested too....i been looking at the BMW style folding mirrors on ebay but these ones that tilt and fold are even better

 

im intrested here.

 

bump on the folding mirrors

 

there's a write up in the DIY section

 

UPDATE:

After all the research I have decided to go to aftermarket side view mirrors. One of my buddies in my club found M5 power folding mirrors w/ LED turn signals ( they also have them w/o the turn signals).

Check the link below:

Price is reasonable at $240 for the set. I will also be in contact with KP Technologies to get an electronic module to control the reverse tilt down feature.

These mirrors are tight!

But not folding. They have the same issue with the glass but I think the translated version says something about being able to switch to the us version. I be contacting someone about them.

 

The last link the price is $900 with out shipping. I can get OEM or Aftermarket parts out to anybody. I own my own shop here in japan and can get some good deals.

As far as the glass in the mirrors I would say you can pull the mirror out of yours and swap it into the japanese unit. It should pop off its motor. I have a nive little DIY for puting Signals in the mirrors if someone is interested in that to.

 

DXJP, why are they so exspensive? what type of deal can you get me. And do you have a website.

 

DXJP, I want the DYI GUIDE you have

 

Everything is expensive in japan. I can get up to 30% off on allot of different parts. Group buys and I can do better. I usually use BAX globle for shipping and can get shipping quotes to. I dont have a website but you can email me at

powersuppply@gmail.com for any parts or Q's.

The price of the Z is just starting to come down and there are a few in the junk yards. I just got a used trany for a z and the complete package was 3500.

MAn if we were talking GTRS there a dime a dosen so I hope we get there sometime with the Z

 

I second that motion!!

 

hmm has anyone ever thought about putting the new 2007 Altima LED side mirrors? I love LED side mirrors and thought this might be a neat idea

 

I decided to go with an aftermarket set of "BMW style folding mirrors". The side view mirrors fold, and have led turn signals. Check this link for pics :

UPDATE:

I have been lookling far & wide to find the parts that would add the electric folding feature to my Z's side view mirrors. I have finally found the last part of the puzzle!!


I wanted my side view mirrors to have the ability to tilt down when in reverse and also fold. I saw JDM Z parts that would do so but they were expensive and difficult to get. After extensive searching I have been able to assemble a system that will do just this. In order to achieve this effect I have put togetther the following:

(1) One set of heated folding side view mirrors w indicator lights
from this link: http://www.xtralights.com/index.asp?...OD&ProdID=1233
Cost: $250

(2) Electronic module that allow the mirrors to tilt down when reverse is engaged from www.kptechnologies.com
Cost $50

I await delivery of the electronics and will give install details.

 

Did you ever get the mirrors installed? Did you ever get the fold in feature to work?

We are currently running a group buy on the mirror tilt module for those interested in adding that feature to your stock mirrors: https://my350z.com/forum/showthread.php?t=313781
