On my 53 JDM i didn't notice until last week that if you unlock it but don't open the doors or anything, after a short amount of time it will automatically lock itself again :blush:

 

 

My Wife's JDM does that even if you open the doors!!!! would have locked the keys in had the window not been open!!!

 

But her aftermarket alarm has a mind of its own it started flashing the hazard lights for no reason a few days ago :headhurt::wacko:

I got my mirrors modded so I know it's locked when they are folded...

That is genius, what a top idea. :thumbs:

 

So when you lock the car, the mirrors fold in!? Thats brilliant, i'm guessing it takes some knowhow to do?

 

 

I like the thought of this except I lock my car using the button on the door while i'm in the car... does this fold the mirror in too?

........or the small button next the hood release ;)

 

 

That said I invariably use the key fob from indoors to double check its locked - there has been more than occasion when I have inadvertently touched the unlock on the fob in my pocket (away from the car) and later found the car unlocked :scare:

 

At least my head and height must be a useful antenna for doing the fob check at 50 metres or more from the car :teeth::lol:

see us importers do have some joys :lol::lol: folding wing mirrors and automatic locking means peace of mind until one of them starts messing up..could you not just buy import wing mirrors and a switch??

 

Except my mirrors dont fold automatically and it doesnt lock itself either. Hmmmm. :shrug:

Maybe your original owner didnt go for that option ..everything from alloys to seats were optional extras so sometimes hard to see what make your import is..for instance i have no brembos or bluetooth but everything else?
