Auto Tailgate close function group buy.

Thanks to pierremcalpine's post we know it is possible to retrofit a module to enable those of us with a power tailgate, to close it via the remote.

The device can be fitted to any XC60, XC70 or V70 with a power tailgate. It does not matter if it is a hydraulic drive (upto MY12) or electromechanical drive (from MY12 onwards).

Video of the instalation can be seen here -

+ YouTube Video

I'm looking into setting up a group buy, which would hopefully net us a discount on the price. At the moment the units are priced at 55 Euros inc delivery, but they are on a back order and not available yet. Can people who are interested please add your name if your not already on the list.

New information.

For 10+ orders we well recieve a 15 Euro discount on the 55 Euro price if they are all shipped to the same address. I can recieve them and forward them on for a small cost. Anybody still wishing to take advantage of this offer needs to PM me with their vehicle model and VIN number.

I'd like one please :)

Put me down for one please.

Put me down for one please. Interesting that most/all of the background chatter in the video was in English......

I have just recieved this e-mail...

Hello tt82

Yes, you can organize a group purchase.
The cost of one unit of 55 euros.
If you're taking more and more, you can save on transport.
I give a discount.
The discount will depend on the number of modules.

To order, I need a list of VIN to verify the drive type.
The module for vehicles with hydraulic and electromechanical drive door is different.
For machines with hydraulic drive (B70, hts70 until 2011)

If people want to PM me their names, along with Make, Model, Year and Vin number of their cars then I'll look to send him the info towards the end of the week.

Post count preventing PM's

Hi tt32, I would like to send details to you via PM but I don't have 30 posts yet (9 short). I put in a request to have my count increased on the dedicated thread but no change so far. Is this something you could help with pls?

Hi,

I would be interested in one too
Thanks

Damn I've only just read this post, and I've already ordered mine.
Evgeny so far seems very efficient, he also gives a link for installation intrusions, although VolvoSweden's YouTube video is great as his others have been.
