The folding mirrors works like this: When you want the mirrors to fold when you lock the car, you press and hold the "BMW Logo-button" until the mirrors starts to move, wich the will do just a fraction of a second after the car has locked, then you can release it. The mirrors will continue to fold.

If you only want to lock your car (without folding the mirrors) you just press the button as before.

PM me if you want to know more or join the groupbuy!
Thanks, Shadow4. I am interested as well, but would like to see price info before making commitment. Is it possible to PM that?

Good morning,

I can confirm that the roof up/down at speeds under 40km/hr works great in North American Z4's (Europe as well obviously) as does the new folding in/out mirror upgrade - awesome that you just plug whichever device you decide to purchase, into the ODB connection and 30 seconds later, it's DONE!

No modules, no wiring etc...and if for some reason you get a software upgrade from the dealer and it wipes out these changes, just put them back by plugging the ODB device back in!

Dave

Do you still have to hold the button down during the entire cycle? I'd love it if I could just hold it down for, say, 2-3 seconds, then release it.

Correct, all you do is plug in the appropriate ODBII device (roof, tv/dvd etc) into the ODBII receptacle, press the green button, lights flash back & forth, update completed! And when I say "press" it's like pressing the button on your garage door opener....just press it once and let go.

Pull the ODBII device out from the port and you're done! Put the device away in a drawer somewhere in case you ever need it again.

Dave

EDIT: sorry I misunderstood. You mean holding the roof button....yes, you still need to hold down / press the roof button until the roof is down/up.

Anyone have a link to a website for this. I'd be interested if I can see how this operates exactly operates in conjunction with the key and roof controls in the car. Also, an estimate price would be good.

Site as noted in other threads; www.prochip.de for pricing, I would suggest you get in on the group buy that Shadow is trying to organize!

Just want to clarify something if I may - you will NOT lose ANY functionality that you may currently have with your Comfort Access.

So in other words, after you purchase ODBII device to perform whichever function you purchased, your car will operate exactly as it did previousl, except it will have your newly installed feature.

Regards
Dave

I would like to have the DVD/TV feature more than the top and folding mirrors but a combo would be great too:>) Does the group deal also apply to the TV/DVD feature?
