How can I make sure Im buying a folding wing mirror and not a non folding type. I need a mirror for a WRX classic and have been to a scrap yard where he has quite a few mirrors. But He is not sure which is folding and which is not..

 

Use a 12v batt and test it!

 

well,u cant mistake it really,but if u dont have a battery to test the wiring,remove the glass and check the bits out behind the glass, u`ll see the motor housing at the top of the unit,remove the screws and remove all the covers,not hard,just phillips screws and u`ll see the motor

 

if its electric folding it will weigh more and you wont be able to fold it in by hand. also has more wires coming out of it.

 

And the base that attaches to the car is made out of metal
