Tailgate mod

Hi all, is there a mod you can do so that when you unlock the tailgate with the fob the tailgate lifts up automatically ??

Seems like a lot of effort and expense to go to for something not really necessary 🤔
I suppose if you fancy a project and are handy with vehicle electrics it might be enjoyable. Landrover - turning owners into mechanics since 1948

Holy Moly, that's a project. I luv messing with stuff but I don't have any issue with my tailgate and no auto lift. Then again, if I was on 5th Avenue with multiple designer shopping bags, my valet would have to step up Smile

I was about to walk across the road passing behind a car. The tailgate opened remotely & hit my $3k mechanical watch. Luckily it has sapphire glass & it wasn't scratched.

There are plenty of other things I can think of than a powered tailgate if you have nothing better to do. Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!
