Outside Rear view mirrors

I have a 2016 Sunseeker MBS. Do the outside rear view mirrors fold in? Would be good in tight locations like narrow bridges.

Our 2015 2401R fold in but it does take a significant amount of force. After spraying them with silicone lubricant they fold up much easier.

If all else fails try a tree at 60 Klm per hour or Miles



just kidding just be careful when pushing real hard to get it to collapse I watched one hit the mirror on the window and break the mirrored part.

Outside Rear view mirrors

Thanks all for your comments. I went and folded mine in.

I think I need some lube to make it a bit easier.

Good news, on this adventure, this southern boy went through so many toll booths, some really tight and I still have my mirrors. Of course, I could see the, could you approach any slower hand motion and look. My rig, my approach. DW stated that looks as if I was pissing off the toll booth operators. Oh well, I am retired and still got my mirrors.

The booths at Can/US bridge crossings are fun too.
