I have VIDA so wondered if there is a setting in the software that can be updated to allow use of the keyfob or locking of the car to fold the mirrors?

Reason is at night, the bottom row of button on the car don't have lights so end up stabbing away trying to find the right button or just forgetting then have to turn on the ignition again and fold them.

Many thanks,

Rich.
Switch bulbs can be replaced easily. I've done all 5 of mine. Pry off the oblong outer trim that surrounds the buttons and 12v socket, then pull out each switch with a pair of long nosed pliers. Bulbs are on the back of each switch - half a turn with a screwdriver and they pop out. Bulbs are available from Volvo but are not cheap. Or - as Simmy says, you can move the buttons around so that the mirror button is the first in the row.
