After searching the forums, I found only one post that was similar to my question, here: https://www.the12volt.com/installbay/forum_posts.asp?tid=136352
My mirrors, locks and auto start are all factory. Later models you simply program the fold to the lock in the DIC. No such option in the 2010 model. It looks like it should be simple to wire in. Wish I was smarter! Thanks

I'm assuming there's a button used to fold the mirrors. Do you have to press/hold, or just press/release? If it's just a momentary press, maybe you can simulate a button press using a relay controlled with the ignition. This probably requires disassembly of the switch and soldering some small wires inside. If you go this route, I'd buy a spare switch before attempting.
Alternatively, you could go directly to the motor wires, and use a window module, or something similar. It looks like the yellow and light blue wires are what you need: http://www.revbase.com/BBBMotor/Wd/DownloadPdf?id=176393
