Is true only if the previous owner had hook up the alarm with the mirror. Take it to any auto electrician & they should able to help u.

Hey,

If you need to replace them I have a set of mirrors for the FTO with the motor in it.

However, it's silver so you'll have to respray them, but that shouldn't cost too much.

Let me know if you are interested.

Thanks,

Just noticing the pic of your car in your signature I thought that maybe there maybe a possibilty that your car may be a Nakaya Tune in which case it is possible that like the Version R's it does not have fold in mirrors. Maybe anyway I'm not sure :? :lol: :roll:

Is your car a GR, as from memory folding mirrors weren't standard on the GR.

OK, then probably a fuse, switch, plug or wiring issue.
