Retrofit Electric Tailgate ?

I was looking at retro-fitting a power tailgate as in Oz it is only offered in an options pack with a sunroof and an ugly brown/grey leather trim with a white border :-(

These are the parts required, as best as I could determine:

  • 2GA827552A 905 - 1 * RH Strut - Gas Filled

    2GA827851B 905 - 1 * LH Strut - Motor Drive

    3G0827887C - 1 * Motor to close tailgate latch

    3G0854719B - 3 * Motor Clips

    2GA827535A - 1 * Bowden cable

    2GA827506A - 1 * Lid Lock for power tailgate

    2GA827427A - 1 * Strut Mount Bracket - RH

    2GA827428A - 1 * Strut Mount Bracket - LH

    5Q0919279 - 1 * Buzzer

    5Q0959107N - 1 * Tailgate Control Module

    N91158501 - 2 * Trim Clip

    3G0959831BWHS - 1 * Push Button Switch

plus a wiring loom and coder - https://www.kufatec.com/en/volkswagen/vw-t-roc/t-roc-a11-ac7/cable-set-electric-tailgate-for-vw-t-roc-a11-42748

But it starts getting a little expensive over here, although there are many second hand parts available in Europe that would make it much more attractive.
