Default Adding Reverse Tilt to Mirrors

Hi all,
Is it possible to add the reverse tilt feature to your side mirrors if it didn't come from the factory with that feature? I have done multiple searches and came up with nothing that definitively answers my question or not. I mean, I know that with enough money, anything is possible. But I was wondering if you could do it yourself without spending an arm and a leg for a relatively small feature to be added.

For reference, I have a 2007 IS 250 w/ 6-speed and the X-Package and I like to back into spots and would love to have my right-side mirror tilt down when in reverse.

What I did find is that you probably have to have the lux package so that you have seat memory. I was hoping to find a way to do this and not add the seat memory to the car (if that is even possible).

Anyway, if anyone knows of a way to add reverse tilt down to the side mirrors without adding a bunch of stuff to the car I would love to know.

Looks like there is no easy solution.
