You have the levers on the wrong way around, the button needs to be under the straight part of the lever.

Ok, the problem is worse now. Only the passenger side folds. Sometimes it stays. Some times it doesn't. The driver side doesn't do nothing. After the first time, I checked the spring. It fell off, so I put it on again. Nothing.
For now, it will have to wait for troubleshooting. The driver side door latch broke. A new mechanism is on order from FCP. It will arrive on Wed.

I just went down to the parking garage (which is boiling hot and humid right now) to check the folding apparatus and maybe figure out why the 'folded out' position is so poorly defined and sloppy, to find that that the workshop guy has silicone glued it shut as some tabs were missing.
To be continued....

Should look like this when installed correctly...
(image from xbimma) Make sure the cover is also fitted correctly - an incorrectly cover can lead to the same problem.

Nice pic wpoll. I'll check mine again later this week. I'll use small clamp or something to hold it in place for testing. I can do without folding mirrors. However, it drives me nuts when a feature doesn't work.
PalmSpringsE534.6: Wow, nice find! Please post if you find them somewhere else. Due to age and clip bending, it may be a good idea to replace them.
