All you do is splice the trigger wire (I think it was orange) into the blue wire on your locks. Everytime you lock your doors, the mirrors fold in/out. If you need anymore help post up I'll help you out.

i bet if you find a switched power wire on the key igniton that would work, when the car is on, the mirrors fold out, when the car is off,t he mirrors fold in

It has to be a momentary 12V line. If you have it just still there with 12V it will open and you will burn out the relay. Also, when you turn off your car. It would do nothing.

If you don't have power locks, your not going to have anything to hook up too. You can wire a button into the line so that you can close the mirrors.

I have mine set up so that when I lock my doors using the FOB or the button, they open/close.
