PIWIS 3 Coding Retrofit and Feature Request

I had been looking for a shop to enable the Mirror Tilt in Reverse. I was quoted $1500 for parts and labor and there was no guarantee for success. I started looking at coding this myself. Credit to rnls_log for helping my out and providing the tool to accomplish this. He helped me almost 20 years ago with the BMW coding. Let’s share our knowledge and save some money for other mods. I’ll start by sharing my Mirror Tilt in Reverse coding by Piwis 3. Settings are in the Kombi and Tuer Vorne Left and Right modules
