2007 Suburban LTZ, does anyone know of a module or hack that will auto fold the mirrors when the SUV is turned off at the key, or by the remote?

Seems like I'm always stuck parking in a tight space with the Sub and usually remember to fold the mirrors in at the switch. But thought if there was a module or mod or hack of some kind to relay a signal to that switch to fold them in when the vehicle is turned off, that would be helpful.

It sounds simple but maybe not. I wouldn't want to get into the command center, just a relay of some kind triggered by the vehicle going into park or shutting the engine off that signals the switch to fold them in.

Anyone seen this, know of mod?

Anything is helpful, I"ve searched the forum and google with no luck, maybe I'm not looking in the right place.
Yes it can be done, I did it on a 2007 Tahoe contact me for details [email protected]

Given the specious quality of the fold mechanism in general, I'm not sure I'd want to subject my mirrors to that much cycling.

I'd rather continue to have just the option to fold, for car washes or the rare tight parking spot.

As Tom said AutoSync will fold the mirrors via the remote or the key off position to open / close them as long as you have electric folding mirrors to start with.

I had AutoSync shutting it off with the key but stopped to save wear also. There was no need to use it twice as much when parked at home in the driveway.

If away from home for a few days I’ll flip it back on so I don’t forget to fold them in parking lots or for valets.

If you have an XL and want to face nose out in a parking spot to avoid backing out, the back up camera override is key. When coasting through a stacked parking space to park nose out and into the space past it, the rear camera can be flipped on to creep forward until your big bootay is perfectly past the painted line between the front / back parking spaces.

This is stuff you really get used to that’s not offered by manufacturers or in the case of key fob controlled windows up / down or mirror fold, GM didn’t mainstream the software update to do until Gen 5.
