I have no reason to doubt that mine is working (fine when manually deployed) but am curious to see if there's some easy way to tell that I have overlooked.
Sloan....... It my particular case, it didn't work on when manually operated. So, it's a pretty safe assumption that since it now works on manual, it will also work when over 75.... Silly as it sounds, I think you could see it with a handheld mirror with arm stretch with your top down. Therefore, Cayman drivers would be sol!!! Or, you can ask your passenger to use the mirror....they already know that you're a P-car nut, so they won't hesitate to assist.
