Thanks for your replies, since I have had time off over Christmas I been watching too much Westcoast Customs and then looking at my Focus on the drive. I think I will look at doing the auto boot opener in the future; I have just purchased a rear view camera from Ebay so that should keep me busy for a while. I did find a video on youtube where the guy fitted new struts for the boot to auto open and they were quite cheap but the boot is a lot smaller on the 1 series BMW. Thanks

There would be the need to fit a dash switch or a seperate remote relay of some sort.
They need to have a maximum and minimum position setting so as to be tuneable and not result in a strained mechanism or snapped brackets.
I have seen it done on programmes such as Monster Garage and Custom My Ride so the application is sound.

Monster Garage season 2 episode 7

Lol no im 20years younger than that
That picture is part of an advertisment that either renault or nissan createdand intended to air on television but never got that far because ford sued them,
I think it may be on Tube though.
I cant remember if it was nissan or renault but their the same company since 2010 anyways lol

Lol season 2 episode 7
Seriously though it would be nice to have full auto unlock,lift, stop.
Then full auto close,shut tight, lock.
But could end up costly, although a number of sets could be built after the first was complete.
