Any way to access the folding mirrors on the European export cars?

I really need folding mirrors for my 14 ss. Can't find any in the aftermarket but I believe the cars for Europe export have them. Can I make them work on my car?

Some thoughts: There is power going to the motors that control the angle of the mirrors. Would the U.S. setup be running enough power to also run the motor that would fold the mirrors? Where would the controls be for this?

You certainly don't mean these Euro mirrors that are the size of wheelbarrows do you?

Didn't say I liked them just said I need them. I trailer this car on the ground floor of my stacker. There is about an inch to spare from the tip of the right mirror to my fender cabinet. This is with the tires touching the inner wheel well on the left side. It's do able just very tight.

There are export mirrors,but they're expensive . I dont know if the wiring is the same . They also have turn signals.

^ Here's a great idea. Not sure where "the great white north" is but there are dealers in Canada close to the US border. Maybe even they could help and they're closer. Calling them's probably a good start...

You could even try the European eBay listings too. That's how I bought an Opel Astra part for my Saturn Aura several years ago.

I couldn't find anything out there. There are a lot of international members on this forum you should reach out to them, Europe in particular. I believe only countries that adopt European regulations have them.
