There are 2 types of switches: Toggle and Momentary. These are all momentary. You will need Toggle switches.

Toggle: Press on, stays on until you press again, and it switches off.

Momentary: Only on whilst the button is held in.

you won't get a switch to fit in that hole that is a toggle. They have not made one. There are very similar shaped ones that are toggle, but don't fit. Wasted lots of money finding that out the hard way.

As for the Folding Mirrors switch, YES. But you need to wire an extra wire for it. Not hard as you're wiring the X-Factor Mirrors in anyway :)

I made this DIY for it: http://clubcj.net/viewtopic.php?t=2201

Here is a video I made of mine in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-b_p7BS5kM

$50 posted each mirror switch if you want one. Half the price of a Brand new one through ofey. They are in brand new condition too.

No mine still function for lock/unlock. This is in ADDITION to the standard functions. And the wire is added to the Mirror control box.

You can still wire them via a switch, but it will just be a generic switch
