[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1139740, member: 14668"] The other issue with continuously folding the mirrors in and out is that over time it will cause the detent bolt on the spring to loosen, which will eventually cause the entire mirror arm to fold inward at highway speed from its own wind resistance. Ever had your passenger-side mirror fold in at 55MPH on the highway while towing a trailer? Not cool. The only time I ever fold my mirrors in is to keep them from being broken off by tree branches in narrow driveways. [/QUOTE]
