It works with both key fob and touch sensors. There is no "own key" come with the device. It will NOT working with the buttons on the inside of door panel if you lock the door by pressing the lock/unlock button then close the door.

The folding mirror function works as advertised. Haven’t tried the window closing feature as I don’t care for it, but those looking for the mirror folding feature, this particular module works.

There is no fix. The sunroof not closing by locking is designed that way.

When you unlock the doors and don't open within a pre-set time, the car will automatically lock it again but this time the mirrors won't fold in.

I also found out that when I press the lock button twice on the remote, all the windows roll down. I tried to unlock the car when it was raining to let the passengers get in before me. Then quickly locked it to get the windows back up before they got in. Everyone else was not amused.

This is same as you lock the door with the locking button on the inside door panel. it is not linked with mirror folding. This behave is the same as OEM mirror folding on my LX which has the auto folding as standard feature.

How is the WINSGO version holding up? Any issues?

I have the original one that hzhao found, but it looks like I’ll have to get one without the hazard flashers. It’s not playing well with the newly installed turn signal relay.

Its been working great for me. Only had it a few weeks, so time will tell, but no complaints so far.

I just uninstalled it after it automatically locked the doors with the keys and dog inside. Also didnt like if you hit the unlock button too many times the windows all go down. All of the functions worked as intended, I just didnt like having them all on. I only requested they turn off the flashing light when locking/unlocking feature.

If anyone one wants it I'll sell it.

There is a procedure to turn off the autolock feature. I’m surprised it came with it ON as default as it was
off on mine.
