Hymer “coach style” mirrors - do they fold?

My Frankia always bugged me because after 7 years I never worked out how to fold the large top hung coach style wing mirrors in. I have now traded it in and am awaiting delivery of a Hymer Mli. Lots of questions keep popping into my head and one is the mirrors. Does anybody know if they can be folded in and if so how, please?

I'm confident they can be made to fold and I'm confident that Banned Member can do it.

Colin ???

The mirrors are fixed to the arm, they do loosen via a large alan key to adjust Ours are nearly in contact with the side window of the van and even if they could be folded, they would not reduce the vans width..
Other model mirrors may be different and on different models

I think Colin is referring to an incident where Charlie used his automatic fold in feature (that was not installed) :Smiling_Devil_Emoji

You can adjust the arms on my Hymer, but the angle of the mirror housing is fixed on the arm. I have mine set to be about 20mm from the side windows.
