Try a Land Rover specialist (not main dealer). The might be able to programme them to work. A lot of these extras are fitted and just need programmed to work. VW and some BMW's are anyway, not sure about the Evoque.

Hi just wanted to say it is possible to retro fit powerfold wing mirrors .puddle.light to evoque as i have done this and is quite simple i have a my12 evoque pure coupe didnt need anything other than the mirrors and some software called jlr sdd and a diagnostic tool called mongoose pro clone from china took me 30 mins to reprogram ecu.you can also retro fit xenon light with the same tool and lots of other features can be activated.
If you dont want to program yourself i was quoted by a independent land rover garage an hours lanour to have it done for me.
The first thing you want to check is if you.have a loom allready fitted.mine was there but this does involve removing door card.
Good luck.

Hi Brent
I was wondering what we are looking for behind the door card to ensure that a Power mirror Retro Fit would be plug and play (apart from the Software changes) .
Am I looking for an additional connector for the motor & puddle light beyond the connector already in place carrying the power for the Mirror Adjustment and to Heat the Mirror ?
Or am I looking for something else to determine whether the retro fitting of power mirrors is viable ? (without having to resort to replacement upgraded wiring looms )
I would appreciate your experience .
Thank you
