I think only 2013 model ZDX's have them. I have wondered if 10-11-12 model Z's can have them installed though.

Only 2013 ZDXs have them, the 2013 ZDX was sold in one package. 10, 11, and 12 ZDXs don't have the power fold mirrors. The power fold mirrors can only be installed from the Acura factory, it's near impossible and would be very costly to do it yourself.

You can do it yourself. You can opt to buy the full assembly or just the power folding mirror (PFM) motor, which would save you a ton. All you need to do is swap the PFM motor into your non-PFM and create your own harness using relays and an aftermarket switch and voila!!


This is what I did to my RL. The harness is universal for all PFM. Looks like all you need is part# 9 & 17 from the 13 ZDX which is $150/each then buy a 5 point relay and an on-off-on switch.

What I'd like to see on my '13 is the mirrors fold with vehicle shut off, and unfold with power on. Currently I have to push the fold button, shut off car, then hit button again, then mirrors unfold with vehicle startup. Still great to have though.

Yup, you can do that too. Just tap the main power wire to a wire that gets a 12V (hot) on ignition.


You can have it fold or unfold when you lock/unlock your car as well. Just tap to keyless entry wire and use a 5 point relay.
