old to new mirrors

hi
just wondering if anyone knows if the new type mirrors will fit an older type (07) FL2
or if not is there a fix yet for the older mirrors not folding in (apart from swinging on them)
thanks in advance

What happens if you help it along with your hand.
It may just need lubrication. (spray grease?) FL2 XS SD4 Auto 2010 2012-2017 (21k - 91k miles) (MY2011)
FL2 Metropolis SD4 Auto 2014 2017- (16k - 79k+ miles) (MY2015)

Re: old to new mirrors

You have to have the new mirrors (or s/h new mirrors) but they must be folding ones
or you end up like me with one that folds electrically and the other by hand Embarassed Embarassed Embarassed If it ain't ***ked don't fix it

That is the problem, the mirrors are identical externally, I am still trying to find out how to tell the difference visually.... Confused If it ain't ***ked don't fix it
