Hi guys, I want to install folding mirrors into my peugeot 206, I have checked the switch near the handbrake and there are 10 wires, what would I need, new door looms and a new switch with the folding function.

Cheers.

Right to start with its not as simple as you may think!

First of all what do you have? model of car?
secodnly what connections do you have on the car mirror loom.

Simple plug & play on mine, all wiring needed for folding mirrors was already there.

I have a peugeot 206 lx 51 plate, I currently have gloss black gti electric mirrors, currently have the white connectors, I count 8 wires on the drivers side and 8 on the passenger side.

The mirrors themselves have 5 on the drivers side and 7 and the passengers side.

Passenger side seems to have

Grey
Yellow
Green
Pink
Green x 2 connected together
Pink
Yellow

Drivers side has the same

Ok to start with you to buy Rolland garros or gt folding mirrors not 180 ones unless u want to cut into the loom and replace the connection blocks, ??
I think if u were to go back and count the wires again I think you will find that it's 7 on drivers side and 9 on passenger side!
But it sounds to me like the wiring is in place because its the grey one from memory which fold out and another one sure it was a darker grey that folds it in.
Anyway go and double check the wires on the mirror loom.

Definitely only 8 wires with only 7 pin connectors inside the connector block, 2 green go into one connection on both sides, pin 8 and 9 on the connector block are unused.

I have taken some photos of the passenger connector block

Cheers.

I tried this on mine ( Same year . ) The wire looms are differant and it's quite a big job hence me having a pair of 180 mirrors and switch in my spare room some years after buying them . At some time the looms were changed in car as a frined of mine had a younger plate than mine I can't remember what year it was though and his looms had extra wires . Also when I had to get replacement mirrors due to mine been knocked off I had to buy a harness adaptor so that they would work with the new mirrors , but this was still differant to the 180 wiring .
