Mirrors when reversing

Since changing to my latest freelander my mirrors now dip down when reversing. Is there an easy overide for the ocassional time I might not want them to dip. ? 09 Plate Rimini Red Freelander 2 HSE with Roofrails, Side Mouldings, Sidetubes and Privacy Glass

Sensible Answer: Adjust them on the door panel

Sensible Answer: I believe they are programmed to the "seat Memory" - so Program the seat on several numbers and have the mirror settings different. The when you want to change it use the seat memory buttons to do it.

As above, but they don't dip if you reverse faster Whistle Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Interesting thought:

The wing mirror s un-dip! when you reverse above a certain speed.

I would think (as mine don't dip!) that if I was reversing that fast I would want first hand vision behind and most certainly clear view of the kerb I'm about to thud against.

I didn`t think you could use the seat memory buttons when engine was running 09 Plate Rimini Red Freelander 2 HSE with Roofrails, Side Mouldings, Sidetubes and Privacy Glass

Without engine running the seat will fully move with one press

With engine running you have to keep the button pressed whilst the seat moves for safety Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis
