You made me think of something to try.

If you have the seat memory (the 1 and 2 buttons by the mirror joystick), besides remembering the position of the seat, the mirrors also are included. When switching from position 1 to position 2, the door mirrors also move.

What I have not done is try storing 1 of the positions with the mirrors extended. Would be cool if it works.

Hey Double-Trouble, is your signature picture from anywhere around the Salton Sea? It looks a lot like the hills in the Superstition Mountain recreation area.

I tried to order the hot blonde option, but according to my dealer it was out of my price range.
