I’ve seen a few modules around but was wondering if you could just wire the in and out wires for the mirrors to the central locking lock and unlock relays. Would this cause the mirrors to fold in when the car auto locks when driving?

I doubt it, bit you could try if you want.

For the price of a module it is just worth the time and effort involved to do so though.

Your Ranger does not have the required door modules to do so.

I've verified the overseas auto fold module works for the USA Rangers as well. The switches seem to be universal for right or left hand drive.

Redtek in AU has them or Eagle 4x4 from the UK. I would assume they work as I said but you need to verify.

I've heard mixed reviews of the redtek unit, does anyone have experience of the Eagle 4x4 version?
