The parking mirror thing was an optional extra for £110 and you got the electric folding mirrors with it.

Might be possible if you have the appropriate mirrors + wiring looms + vagcom.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

It's not standard, you need new parts for folding/ reverse mirrors

Stick your mirror switch on the left mirror and stick it in reverse it should work

Mods yes but way too many to stick in this little box

it can be turned on if  the car was specced with it, I doubt anyone ever turned yours off so it's a safe bet it's not there, also you mention puddle light cable are thee, when I looked into it the cables are not there, neither are the control modules ( again unless the car was specced with it)

That's ok, I don't need tilting mirrors anyway because I can park properly :signIWS:
