991.1 Rear Lowering Mirror

Just a query about the rear lowering mirror which should actuate when putting in to reverse gear. My car is a 2013 991.1 with PDK and PCM which has a selection on the screen for choosing the rear lowering mirror function. However this does not work which is a pity as I liked this on my 996. I am told that this will not work on my car as it does not have the memory function (which I believe are switches fitted to the door on some models for the electric seats and mirrors). Does anyone know if this is definitely the case? It seems strange that Porsche put this option on the PCM if it is not available.
 
If you haven’t got it from factory then you won’t be able to simply code it in. I’m sure a retro fit is available if you want to, however it would also include replacing some wiring looms etc.

So it’s just the case of how badly do you want it, and what it’s worth to you.

I have the function, but as it’s a low car it’s not as needed as much as some I would happily live without it… but glad I have it all the same
