autoupdate google contacts from thunderbird addressbook?

The authoritative source of my contacts in the Thuderbird addressbook. I would like to autoupdate Google contacts from Thunderbird so that my mobil devices can have my latest contacts. I know how to export from Thunderbird and import on Google, but what I am looking for is an autoupdate mechanism. As far as I can tell the contact-syncing addons are meant to go in the other direction.

Is there anything that will do what I want?

Syncing is just that. It is not a one way street. So your Thunderbird contacts will also appear in Google.
