Default Power folding mirrors

Hi i have just installed some jdm power folding mirrors to the car what i wanted to know was if the mirrors have any special switches such as limit switches which cut of current after they have fully folded in or out. just trying to make a circuit for them to work with the ignition.

AFAIK, yes, they do. I Put them on my classic in July.

Apparently there is a simple mod involving a relay that allows you to have them fold as you switch off the ignition, but I've not bothered as my car is dead at the mo, suffered a big-end failure coming home from France.

Still trying to get to grips with what to do with it now

I'm not holding my breath. Every time I think I know where to take it, someone says, "Don't go there because.............."
