Sorry, meant "settle"

 

I would have wanted this option...

 

Yes your struts are weak. Mine are not like that at all.

 

My only complaint about the GS trunk coming from the Audi is that the trunk feels really tinny and cheap, but hey... I look that as one of the ways they kept the GS weight down so as not to go into "porker" territory like the 5 Series. You take the bad with the good. The most positive aspect of the trunk is that it will double what my Audi will hold.

 

Can we order the part from Canada? My FX35 has the power hatchback latch, you just have to close the hatchback until you hear the click and the power latch does the rest.

look at the last image of the trunk, it clearly shows a button, but it seems as though that option is not available yet.

 

^^^
Power pulldown on my LS430 doesn't have a button - the mechanism is all internal. There is a button above the license plate indention to release the latch. I believe the LS460 has a full power closer (from open position) activated by a key fob button.

As for the pic, I see the latch, pull handle, and 4 rubber bumpers. Am I missing something else?

 

Since it is available on the Canadian GS AND still available on the 2012 LS, can it be purchased separately and added to my 2013 G# 350?

4LS (460/600) power trunk closer button:

 

Of course it can, you can buy and retrofit anything. But I would imagine it is a pretty involved retrofit, thus would cost a lot of money. The power mechanism, switch, all the proper panels, labor............I would say is thousands of dollars.

 

The power trunk opens and closes completely automatically, it isn't just a soft-close feature like the 3GS'.

 

Damn that event was a long time ago. That was our first revised logo which was nasty.
