Default R171 Folding Mirrors (what coding needed)?
When I retrofitted folding mirrors to our W211, Mercedes dealer was easily able to program instument cluster and whatever else to enable the multifunction display menu for selection of automatic folding.

Have now installed motors and switch in my R171 (2006) and neither dealer nor a local independent with STAR can figure out how to program this feature. Mirrors work properly using switch, but of course the job isn't finished until automatic folding is programmed.

No USA SLK was equipped with folding mirrors ex factory and I believe this is the case with W211 as well.

What's different about the SLK?

Does anyone know the steps to success?
