I know this is an old thread, but I stumbled across it while looking for the same thing - while Leisesturm apparently sees no need for a device such as this, I definitely do, as drivers here have 2 choices on narrow roads - 1) slow down, wait to pass, pass, or 2) keep going and give you only inches of spare room.

Now I'm all for "owning my lane' and "granting the right to pass", but when they DO, I want them to see something that keeps them away - especially as they don't want their paint jacked up. However, I want to deploy it when I see them coming in my mirror and "fold it back" when not. So, did anyone find something like the above that is motorized or "deployable"? Thanks!
