Adding auto close trunk F10

Dear F1X-ers,

Is it possible to add the close function on my trunk of my F10. If it is possible I want the button where I can push on to close it. What do I have to order? Do I have to reprogram the car?

Thanks.

Was trying to cut back so I didn't get too much crap from my wife. When it arrived, she asked why I didn't order it -- can't win!

This can be coded but only if you already have the power trunk lid.

I think you misunderstood the original post. He is asking if it is possible to retrofit the power trunk.

I did slightly but answered the second part. As for retrofitting I am sure it is possible but the parts list would not be cheap. If anyone has retrofitted the motor, wiring, and buttons on the trunk please feel free to chime in. 😄

It can be retrofitted but would require both trunk openers, control module & associated wiring which you would probably have to build yourself as it wouldn't be available separately

Hello all,

I have all the parts here but don't know how to install it. Does anyone has the installation instruction for this retrofit? Mine is f10.
Thank you

little off topic but i have to say that we don't value options until we have to live without them.
Little things that are installed from factory are so helpful, that when i get in the car that option installed.
After have my f10 coded, i can now close and open trunk with a remote or button under dash.
Coding works wonders with our cars.
If i were you, i would probably look at local shops for totaled F10 that had power trunk, and buy the whole lot of parts. its cheaper than dealer!!!
just a thought!!

Can you guys post the parts list. I'm starting to get the parts and want to make sure I'm getting everything to try and retrofit this.

Thanks

1. 51247207009/ 5124720710 automatic trunk lid ( Spindle drive left/right )
2. 61357327886 Control unit for rear function module ( Control unit tail gate )
3. 61319275119 Switch trunk
Please check, I am not so sure about the rest.

Anyone know where to install Control unit tailgate lift? I can not find the connector ( My car already has the trunk opener. I also can not find the control box )
