Electric Tailgate for D4?

Hi all.

I did a search, but finding nothing I wondered if anyone had tried this or something similar ?

Not a lot of detail, but did make me curious!

Haven’t used one or seen one personally, but this kit is for sale from an Australian store which would be a Chinese kit no doubt. https://lroffroadaustralia.com/products/po...technology

Looks good in action

I like this too - it takes me a few attempts to close my top tail gate every time!

According to the Drivers Handbook Manual that came with my MY16 HSE - this was meant to be already installed with repeated warnings (as far as I recall) about not 'slamming' the tailgate - and allow it to shut automatically (or something similar).... if only!

Typical LR ...... printing and talking about what they hoped - only for it not to materialise in the flesh - a bit like the 'see through bonnet' ..... whatever that was all about. Rolling Eyes

Looking at that it looks like the gas rams/strutts are the actual power lifter/closer themselves? if so is everynone forgetting just how manly and strong the top gas ram mounting point is not!
