I'm moving in apartment soon and i will be having small spot to park my car. So today i decided to check my mirrors on "foldability" and i couldn't fold them in and i tried very hard though. I was like WTF i folded mirror on one maxi on the junk yard and it's worked fine . I tried WD40 all the way around didn't help.
Anyone knows what it might be and how to fix it.

 

mine fold in fine on my 95.

 

mine fold fine in my 99 ... try harder

 

It's never been folded before like 9 years, may be thats the problem???

 

it could be. the first time i folded mine it was kind of hard. just put some more wd40 and give it a good tug. dont break it though

 

arrgh........fu ck it guys i just went down to check it again and i think i pushed it to a limit and it still doesnt want to fold in.
so angry..... oh well i can live with it.
Previous owner you SUCKS!!!

 

when i fold my 98 heated mirrors they make a cracking noise. but the design looks like it folds. I never folded mines period.

 

Drive by a telephone pole real fast.

 

funny!!

 

Mine fold on my 97 GXE

 

Mine fold on my 98 SE. My wife's 93 folds as well, so does her father's 94. Looks like you need to take it apart and see what's wrong.....

...or drive by a telephone pole real fast.

 

my GXE folds too

 

My passenger side folds easily. The driver's side is a PITA to fold though.
Needs some lube I guess.

 

You are folding them in towards the windows. Try using some KY for, it works awesome!!!

 

Bring it to me, ill fold the darn mirror for you.
That's weird. i have no ideal why it woulnd't, even thought you havent in the past 9 years.
maybe the previous owner bought an aftermarket one after he destroyed the Stock one?

 

or, he broke that **** off and glued the mirrors back on......prev owener prolly thought you'd never notice until he ran away with the check......

 

mines fold back and fourth.

 

mine too....

 

i tried again today and no luck so far. I was gonna untight 3 screws on the bottom but they were all in rust so i just messed one head with the screwdriver said fu$% it........... and went back home

 

You are not the only one on mine 96 SE I could not fold them and after trying i broke the mirror THERE WAS NO CHANCE OF FOLDING IT PERIOD that is why I broke my passenger side the driver side now I don't want to touch

 

If your parking spots are that small how do you open the doors?? I wouldn't even worry about the folding mirrors, if cars are that close I would worry more about my paint.

Power folding mirrors FTW!!

 

Drive by a telephone pole

My parking spaces are so tight that I have to take my phone out of my pants and turn sideways to slide into my seat ... oh and one foot at a time like I was trying to pounce on something. Folding the mirrors doesn't give me anymore room. AH ... so many scratches on my car because of that crap.

 

haha true that.....

 

I have had a 1996 and a 1999 and both cars had folding mirrors. I'm sure that yours fold in.

 

my 96 fold just great
