Power Liftgate '05 TL
I was wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to install a power lift gate in my 2005 TL. It is a fully loaded model with Nav, etc. I would love to have a trunk that opens and closes on its own with a touch of a button. Any thoughts?

I'm sure it can be done, just a matter of finding what will fit.

I could see how it might be possible on some sedans equip with trunk mechanisms mimicking the hydraulic hood supports, since that's what Audi/VW uses (and a quick Google search shows it's possible), but I don't know how such a device could be done on our cars.
Then again, nothing is impossible...

AH, the trunk is very light weight anyway (unless you have a wing spoiler). I don't know if it's worth the investment....

a Google search for power deck lid or trunk lid is what you need:

I didn't realize opening the trunk was so hard to do...
