ABSTRACT:
A side mirror retracting vehicle alarm system for automatically retracting side mirrors of a vehicle while the alarm system is activated includes a vehicle having a side mirror and a side mirror retraction assembly. A vehicle alarm assembly is operationally associated with the vehicle for inhibiting theft of the vehicle. The vehicle alarm assembly includes an activation mechanism for selectively activating the vehicle alarm assembly to a ready state. The mirror retraction assembly is operationally coupled to the activation mechanism of the vehicle alarm assembly such that activation of the vehicle alarm assembly retracts the side mirror. In an embodiment, extension of the side mirror is achieved only by authorized deactivation of the vehicle alarm assembly.
