The power trunk retrofit is available in Korea for about $770. Photos of all the parts as well as a video of the retrofit in action is here:

Agree, I at least figured it is Korean. It would have been nice if there is some English portion to allow contact and confirmation if the parts work of the make/model

please please please!!!!!! put together a parts list and where to source and a little more detailed instructions and we can make this happen. If we can get a detailed spec of the bracket, I can have the family metal manufacturing shop make the brackets.

bimmer-tech makes a power trunk retrofit kit for the F10 bmw's. I wonder if that could be modified in a way to fit 6 series. Isn't the 6 series based on the f10, just slightly modified?

In the feedback section there's the photos of maron car, can you confirm?
Any update on that? Were you able to not slam the trunk at the end of the closing procedure like in the video?

Seller claims that the kit have a soft-close option.

Update: seller send me the manual for the installation (obviously for the F06) and I think it's time to spend some money

Update no.2: At the moment we are 3 people, located in Italy, ready to buy the kit, I'm pretty sure this kit will go out of stock soon as more an more people are approaching.

Hi Aliendex!

Are you able to PM the manual to me. I would like to have a look. If so, I am serious about ordering also to give it a try.

Cheers,

Jeff

F06 power trunk/boot/deck lid.........any progress on retrofit??

I would also like to see the manual to confirm part numbers, etc. Sure seems like the F10 components would work, its not rocket science.

Thanks!

I purchased one from Bimmer Coder. Just finished the trunk install. Now I need to add kick. Works like a charm. I do t know how to add the video of it in action from my phone though.
