I've been eyeing up a set of wind deflectors from a firm called Heko, there's a few adverts on eBay that
Advertise for c class but I saw that just one advert stated " not suitable for cars with electronically
Folding mirrors" which threw the cat in amongst the pigeons .
Has anybody with electronically folding mirrors got a set of Heko deflectors fitted?
and do the mirrors Clash with the deflectors ?
 
I do, they touch just ever so slightly on folding in, i always thought it was because i had aftermarket carbon fibre mirror covers on though
 
You could measure the gap between the mirror and window, then fit the reflectors and remeasure for interference. If there is an issue, you could always modify (read: cut) the deflectors to allow space for the mirror. It will be at the bottom where the window is less open. Polish up the cut edges with varying degrees of wet and dry down to 2000+ grit, and use a polishing mop in a drill or dremel kits often come with this too.
 
Thought about that too mrgreedy, just trying to see if the statement " not suitable " was correct .
It would influence my decision :)
