Lightbulb Power trunk mod

Hi everyone!

Is it possible to retrofit power trunk in g42?

I have power trunk in my current g20, so not having it in g42 would be very annoying

It opens quite easily.. and closes as well. I'm sure, at some expense, there's a way.

The expense would be pretty huge though.

Give it a try first and see if it's worth it.

Maybe reach out to https://emeraldstruts.com/collections/models

And see if they have interest in making it. They do strut replacement to make the trunk open fully from key fob.

Also it looks like they do a full electric kit.

Good luck
