[R] SARIMAX as extended AR(I)MAX?

[testrider]

I am currently trying to make a forecast based on past observations of the
dependent variable AND external variables at the same time.
I know that ARIMAX allows you to do this, however when I use this function
it fits the model using the last k lags. What i actually want is to decide
on the best model by means of AIC for example that only uses a subset of
those k lags. 
I think that SARIMA allows me to choose lags (but no experience here) but it
does not allow me to include external variables.
So for example instead of using the last 52 lags of my dependent variable I
just want to have a result that would look like lag 1, lag 4 and lag 52 for
the dependant variable, lag 1 to lag 4 for external variable number 1 (A)
and lag 1, lag 12 and lag 52 for external variable number two(B).

I hoped to find a SARIMAX or SARMAX function but i have not succeeded. Does
anyone know if it exists, and if not what would be the recommended way to
include both external variables and ARMA terms? The integrated part is not
that important for me. Though automatic lag selection would be a pre, I may
be able to choose the lags manually.
