Do the side-view mirrors fold?

I was doing some cleaning today and accidentally banged my arm against the side view mirror. At first I was like, no worries, these things should pivot right? Well, now I'm not so sure . Do the side view mirrors on our baby fold inwards?

...but don't make a habbit of it, a guy on s2ki.com did this to clean his car. He ended up replacing the mirrors after some time.

If I park in a small spot, I always fold my mirrors inwards and always did this. 9 years on my 3rd gen Integra and on my 3rd gen TL for last 9 months.

Just a bit. So it will not break in case is pushed accidently.

They do, but they are not power folding like the A4, 6 and Maxima.

Thanks for feedback everyone. I thought they folded, but it doesn't say on the spec sheet and there is nothing in the manual. I thought I was going to break it when my arm hit it hard and it didn't budge!
