Mk 7 highline mirror folding / puddle lights

I just went out and folded mine back. They sort of rotate back and up, not straight back.

Well there you go.. Two people have confirmed they manually fold.

The mirrors on my 6R polo are very hard to fold, to the point where when they eventually do let go you feel like you're breaking them...

Cheers for confirming guys!

Does the source of that photo state that is specifically of a non-power foldable mirror? I've seen power folding mirrors that look like that so I wonder if it is just a photo of that.

It's my own car, not from Google Images

I think Idle needs to hit the gym for a bit

You may be right — after all I am 90 — but the fact remains that I could easily fold the mirrors on the Mk 6 I sold just over a month ago, and can't even shake those on the new Mk 7 (TDI110 Highline.)

As I said, in neutral with the handbrake off I can move the car by shoving either mirror in the direction it's supposed to fold (they should be foldable both ways, BTW.)

They still give me the impression they're bolted on.
