not interesting in buying one more of a technical question, can someone that bought one of these units please confirm that this is a 5 wire unit.

if so it appears they are just using a relay

that should be wired like this in theory:

NO (Normally open): wire to the circuit to close the tailgate
NC (normally closed): wire to the circuit to open the tailgate
Common: the power to the tailgate button
conditional wires that activate the function of the relay are tied to the open current of the tailgate lock

i will be doing this on my xc60 with a 12v 5 pin relay and should be around £4.99 for the relay after someone confirms that the units they have fitted are only 5 wires.. note im pretty sure im right.. i just cant justify the insane price they are selling it for when it apears to electronically just be a relay. if this works i could make my own thread and a simple picture guide.. i would do a video but its hard enough holding wires let alone a camera and wires.
