I've got the electric folding mirrors on my car. Does anyone know if they can be set to automatically fold in when you use the remote to lock the car?

I don't think so - but I damned hope so :)

Short answer - no. Nor would I want mine too either. I imagine there might be circumstances in the winter when mirror mechanisms that might be frozen up would not take too kindly to having to keep on folding everytime I locked my car.
Anyway I don't want to accelerate wear and tear on this useful feature by them forever closing and opening.
But,hey, this is just my personal opinion!

No they can't. A few folk working on modding them to get them to try and fold on using the keyfob but so far I don't think they have had success.

I, for one, would find it useful if they would auto-fold on lock/unlock.

Another mod should be to not allow them to fold in while the car is in gear/motion. Once or twice now I've inadvertently turned the internal control one rotation too far and had them fold in. Not good while in motion!.
