Question auto fold power fold mirrors mod ??

First of all, I have a 2014 FX4 3.5 EB with power fold mirrors. I've been reading quite a lot about the auto fold mod and understand that it's possible to do it with ForScan. However, I can't find the exact procedure for our generation (2009-2014). The only thing I found was a write up for the generation above us (2015-2018). So I wrote a message to the guy who did the tutorial, asking if the values were the same for our generation ? (still waiting for an answer, but I doubt the values are the same)

Is there anybody on the forum that successfully did this mod that can guide me through this ?

Actually, I read that tread and the guy simply installed power folding mirrors on his truck which didn't had power folding mirrors from factory.

What I'm trying to do here is "simply", make the mirrors fold automatically when I lock the doors (either with the FOB or from the keypad). There's a write up for the 2015-2018 models but our generation is completely different.

Wouldn't it have to be an option somewhere originally to be in the computer? The other stuff is, like adding the power fold in that thread, or adding remote start to an XLT. Is it an option in 15+?

it's probably an option for the 15+ but not for our trucks. also I've been looking all over the internet and there's people asking since 2010 about this mod. Now that ForScan is available, I figured that somebody would have tried it already but I guess I'm wrong !...I spent 6h yesterday trying to understand the computer coding because I seriously think that it's possible through the program instead of rewiring the complete system.
