Retractable Side Mirrors

[Dr. Jeff]

Are there any after market options to add retractable side mirrors to a 2009 Tundra? My garage is so damned small I'm either scraping the bumper on the drivers side, or the mirror on the passenger side when I try to make the corner to get into it.



I've seen some talk of the Limited Sport edition having retractable mirrors, but I didn't know if there were any other options other than ordering those mirrors from the dealer or if anyone has tried this and whats involved as far as wiring.



Thanks in advance!

only thing i know is that if you dont have a limited, limited mirrors will not be a direct plug-n-play swap with your old mirrors if you want to take advantage of all its features.

My garage is tight lengthwise so I often drive my front license plate screws into the drywall when I park. I have a possible work-around suggestion for you. Since you are going to scrape on one side or the other, make it the passenger side and place some sort of soft-catch at mirror height on that side of your garage. Slowly pull in and allow the catch to gently fold your mirror in, sort of like production-line automation.
This will work if you are hitting the inside of your gagrage but if it is the very outside, your house that you are hitting, then I don't know if I would want something jerry-rigged on my exterior but it's still possible.
