Power Folding Mirrors?

Anyone know if Japan got Power Folding Mirrors for their Accord? It's something i'd be interested in getting!

Try checking some JDM websites. They should list them if they're available.

I would upgrade the mirrors if there were available. I like that option just like the rear fog light. Do I really need them, no. But, they are still cool items, IMO

HOW COME? I installed a set of jdm mirror on my itr and I love them. I used the USDM mirror assembly and jdm motor. They work great and cool as hell. If you can swap jdm mirror motor into the usdm mirror assembly than is not worth it because you wont be able to see jack out of them.

The ones i got had a button to swing them in, but to keep them in the closed position you had to hold this stupid button. They were expensive, and added alot more weight to my car. So Thats why i consider them a waste of money

I wish the entire line had that option. I was calling for this option in the TL. No luck there, either. The Nissan Maxima has them...

you guys do know that the Honda Inspire (which is our US Accord) has the same mirrors as the TSX, and they are power folding mirrors. Now the honda inspire is made here (i believe) so it you MIGHT be able to order a japanese part through a Honda dealership. I know when I had an Altima, the NIssan Bluebird (altima in japan) we could order Japanese parts through a US Nissan dealer... worth a shot IMO
