Wing mirrors

[schaud]

Hi,
Sorry if this is obvious but does anyone know how to turn the wing mirrors in on a Trophy?
I have sat in a Trophy but it hadn’t had its PDI so I couldn’t see how to do it.
My garage opening is rather narrow so I will probably need them to be turned in.

Thanks,
Dave

Funny you should ask that as in my MG5 I could use the little nob to the right of the steering wheel and it would put them in whilst driving, but I tried yesterday in the MG4 and it didn't do it even though its the same button. But when I lock the car it does, but in your situation you need it whilst it's driving.

Possibly a fault as it's the same button as the MG5 is and that works

I thought I saw on that Spanish video that you leave the mirror selector in the middle position then press the switch down. I'll try and confirm later if someone else doesn't answer first.

I'd return it as a mis-build.
The mirrors should be on the doors

I can confirm you can just use the button to get the mirrors in like you can on the MG5.

Pretty sure theres a setting on the screen to stop it from folding automatically when you lock the car... why you'd want that not sure but its there anyway.

Because when it's freezing the mirrors may lock it until defrosted so some people like to leave them open in the winter.

A quick spray with silicon around the joint when they are not frozen will stop them from getting frozen shut. Just be careful not to get any on the windscreen.

Tried it on my current car last year...Still hesitant to open a couple of mornings

Perhaps it's trying to tell you to stay in bed

When you preheat the car from the app does it not do the door mirrors too?

Mirrors yes, mechanism and casing not really
