Power Folding Mirrors
There are dip switches on it with a low, medium and high clutch setting. I've used some versions that I could remove and replace resistors to set the limit exactly where I wanted. In other cases I would use a timed output from the alarm to control it. I used to have a "faux" hood in my trunk that motorized open to show my amps that are built into Evo valve covers. I used a 530T to control the actuator and the motor lead disabled very reliably on open and close. It's also possible that the mirror motors have their own limit switches built in...
Motors did end up running on 12v, which is great! I tried out the 535T to see if it would work for this application, but it only moves the mirrors an inch and stops. This is after several attempts at end limit programming. Not sure why it doesn't want to move completely in both directions.
Are you using the orange status inpit trigger? I know the 535 is a little different and think if that wire sees ground the one touch will not work which would pulse the output. Did you try the 12v switch leads as triggers?
Correct, I tried to trigger using the 12v switch wires. The orange status wire was wired up to the "ground when armed" side of the alarm, but I never set the alarm to test the feature. It looks like it fails to detect the folding end limits of the mirrors during the programming cycle.
Disconnect the ground when armed wire and try it, I believe that the 535 added a failsafe to stop the window up motion so it wouldn't trigger motion sensors as part of the logic upgrade from the 530 along with the "Learn" feature to set the motor stop resistance threhhold

i managed to do the same for my Lancer 2007 everything working Perfect except that they unfold when I reach 40km/h. i know there should be a wiring connection running from Speed Sensor to my mirrors. could you Please help regarding to that connection.
If your arm can reach the other side of the car then it's not that hard at all 
The key to have the mirrors to work perfectly is to have:
- Both mirrors ( then swap bases)
-Mirror switch with folding button
-ETACS unit from an evo with folding mirrors (this is crucial, it's the "relay")
-Wiring diagrams, and some extra wires to run ( one from switch to etacs, the from from left side mirror to etacs and another from right side mirror to etacs.)
There's a set on ebay UK, but it doesn't include the ETACS.

If your mirrors have the heating element with them, you'll need to wire those up too.
Good news though.. I just tested everything and got it working now with the jdm switch and etacs. I just have to finish running the wires and it should be all good to go.
Update: If anybody needs help with this feel free to PM me.

Nope, no heating element here to deal with.
