I'm also interested in these! I'm pretty sure you can find some generic after market ones that look gosh awful, but as far as ones that would look good on the 2010 TL...maybe a custom job for a master mechanic...:-/

I assume you mean electric folding. Ours fold manually. At least my 2012 does. Maybe they changed that recently?

do you guys not park in a wide parking spot? i find myself always looking for the largest spot.. and when that is done.. i really do not see the need for folding mirrors.. its more of a cool factor.. but in reality.. shit looks gay.

I have a garage and still haven't seen the need to fold my mirrors, and if I did, I'd fold them manually. Although it is a "cool factor", it actually can be convenient for those that park on the street. I've seen a few mirrors ripped off by passing cars.

I didn't think China had a TL version, just TSX (Accord)...thought the TL is a US based car...and Canada.

anyway, Canada models have those folding mirrors. I guess if you were all into that VIP stuff they would be a "mod". someone in the Black Market was selling a set a while back, MIGHT still be for sale.
