Remote control boot lid opening

[camelspyyder]

Automatic opening trunk.

 

Do you want this?

 

Look on you tube:

 

 

$30 for parts from fleabay

[Rednaxela]

Yes sir, I do want that!

Could also be used to assist braking, like the flaps on a jet.. Lol

Just 2 springs that's all.

They've been doing that for the MK2 Octy for years.

Buggy in one hand, toddler on other, might be worth it...it is quite a mumsy car after all

Bought them. Thanks for posting! I'm sure it'll become useful a few times.

And when the cold weather comes it won't work as the guys in the Octavia section found out [emoji6]

Installed it, part of the gas strut took some effort to get off but I got it in the end. Nice cool mod for not much ££. Not really bothered about it not working 100% of the time, as long as it doesn't do the car any damage.

Is this possible with the Spaceback?

With the correct gas strouts, yes.

All gone... :(

[potatoesgrowontrees]

Is there a guide or a video or something on how to install the struts? Do I need tools for the job?

Anyone? Are the struts easy to install?

[RickTT]

Looks good..

 

Struts are normally 2 bolts either end.

 

One thing to think about... what is the total height of the boot when opened ? is this higher than OEM ? if so it could go crashing into multi storey car park ceilings or euro tunnel carriage ceiling as an example which are all at standard height to prevent impacts
