Is it necessary to install power-folding mirrors?
1 Answers
If you don't modify them initially, you can observe your actual usage for a period. If you frequently encounter situations requiring mirror folding, then retrofitting might be advisable. Introduction to power-folding mirrors: Currently, most mid-to-high-end vehicles come equipped with foldable mirrors. There are two types of folding mechanisms: manual and power-operated. Manual folding requires the driver to either reach out the window or exit the vehicle to fold the mirrors, which is both inconvenient and unsafe. This manual folding type has become increasingly rare nowadays. Benefits of power-folding mirrors: Folded mirrors can save significant space and prevent potential "broken mirror" incidents. During driving, minor collisions are inevitable. As the widest protruding components on a vehicle, mirrors are most vulnerable to impact in side-swipe situations. The folding function helps minimize such damage effectively.
