Autoease Power Liftgate Kits

Autoease makes the TL105G3, a power liftgate kit built for one vehicle at a time: two powered struts (on liftgates), a control box, wiring, and dash and gate buttons. It's the kit we install most, made for over 160 models: SUVs, hatchbacks and minivans, plus the trunk on a few sedans. On most vehicles it works with your factory remote.

Each kit is made for one vehicle, so check yours before you order. You pay at checkout for the kit, plus the installation if you add it, with $50 off the installation because you bought the kit from us. The kit reaches our Markham shop in 5–7 days, then we call to book and install it in about four hours. Kit only? It ships to you once it arrives.

Open it every way

Use it the way you would once it's installed, then put something in the way or park in a low garage.

    How the Autoease kit works

    It replaces the parts that hold your liftgate up and adds the motors and controls a factory power liftgate has.

    Powered struts replace the liftgate's gas struts

    On an SUV, hatchback or minivan, your two gas struts come off and two motorized struts go on, matched to your gate. A control box made for your vehicle runs them.

    Open it your way

    Use the dash button, the gate button or, on most vehicles, your factory remote. Add the TL-KICK and a kick under the bumper does it too. It still opens by hand.

    Stops if something's in the way

    If the gate meets something while closing, it stops and goes back up, and it beeps while it moves. You set how high it opens, with a normal or fast speed.

    Autoease TL-KICK Hands-Free Kick Sensor for the TL105G3 Kit
    Add-on

    Add hands-free opening: the TL-KICK sensor

    Autoease's foot kick sensor mounts under the rear bumper, so a kick under the bumper opens or closes the gate when your arms are full. It isn't in the TL105G3 box: tick it in the checker above when you order your kit.

    It works only with the Autoease TL105G3.

    Installation

    We install it at our Markham shop in about four hours, by appointment. Order it with the kit and you pay for both at checkout.

    Power Liftgate Kit Installation, LIFTGATE-Install
    We install it

    Have us install it

    A power liftgate is part mechanical and part electrical. Both struts have to be mounted so the gate moves evenly and closes cleanly, and the wiring has to run from the gate into the body without being pinched every time it opens. We do the whole job, set the opening height with you and show you every way to open it before you leave.

    Order your kit with installation and we'll call to book as soon as it reaches us, usually 5–7 days after you order. You pay for both at checkout, with $50 off the installation.

    Installing it yourself?

    You can, if you're comfortable removing interior trim and doing basic 12V work. Autoease puts a first install at about two to three hours, and our Autoease install guides cover many vehicles.

    From our customers

    What Autoease customers tell us

    “Installed the power liftgate for my basic CX-5 by Lockdown Security over the last weekend. Price is reasonable and the services is excellent. Love the kick sensor which make my life so much easier after grocery shopping.” Elsa, Mazda CX-5

    The other kit we install

    No Autoease kit for your vehicle?

    We use JINGLE where Autoease doesn't make a kit, including power trunks on sedans like the Toyota Camry and Corolla, BMW 3 and 5 Series, Mercedes-Benz C- and E-Class and Audi A4. Its foot sensor comes in the box, and on most vehicles it works with your factory remote.

    Autoease power liftgate questions

    Will an Autoease kit fit my vehicle?

    Only if there's a TL105G3 made for it. Each kit comes with brackets, wiring and a control box for one vehicle, so it isn't universal. Use the checker at the top of this page, or enter your VIN. If JINGLE makes the kit for your vehicle instead, the checker shows you that one.

    How does ordering work, and how long does it take?

    Each kit is made for one vehicle, so we order yours in when you buy it.

    1. Pay at checkout. You pay for the kit, and for the installation if you add it, with $50 off the installation. Your payment places the order with our supplier.
    2. It reaches us in 5–7 days.
    3. We call you to book. When your kit arrives, we contact you to schedule the installation, about four hours at our Markham shop.

    Buying the kit only? It's ordered the same way and ships to you once it reaches us.

    How do I open and close it?

    With the button on the dash or the button on the gate. On most vehicles it also works with your factory remote, with nothing to program: hold the trunk button for about three seconds, or press unlock three times if your remote has no trunk button. Add the TL-KICK sensor and a kick under the bumper does it too. You can still open and close the gate by hand.

    Will it close on someone?

    No. If the gate meets something while it's closing, it stops and goes back up. It also beeps while it moves, so anyone nearby knows it's coming.

    Does it work in a Canadian winter?

    Yes. Autoease tests the kit from −30 °C to 65 °C and the system is waterproof. After freezing rain, clear any ice along the gate's seal before you open it, as you would by hand.

    Can I set how high it opens?

    Yes. You set the opening height, which helps in a garage with a low ceiling or if you're shorter. It also has a normal and a fast opening speed.

    Is the foot kick sensor included?

    No. The TL-KICK is an add-on: tick it in the checker when you order your kit. It works only with the Autoease TL105G3.

    How long does the installation take?

    About four hours for most vehicles, by appointment at our Markham shop, so you'll have it back the same day. We book it once your kit reaches us, usually 5–7 days after you order. We fit the kit, run and connect the wiring, set the opening height and test it with you before you leave.

    Do you have to cut wires or drill holes?

    The kits connect with harness adapters made for the vehicle, so on most installs we don't cut into factory wiring. Some vehicles have no factory hole for the dash button or the strut cables, and those need a small hole drilled. We'll tell you before we start.

    What warranty do I get?

    The kit has a one-year warranty from Autoease. Our installation work has a lifetime warranty: if anything we did ever needs attention, bring the vehicle back and we'll make it right.

    Will it affect my vehicle's warranty?

    A power liftgate kit connects to your vehicle's wiring, so connections are made. We make them to factory standards and can document what was added and where. A manufacturer generally can't void your whole warranty over an aftermarket accessory; the usual position is that they'd need to show it caused the specific problem. If your vehicle is under warranty and you're concerned, ask us before you book.

    Do you ship across Canada?

    Yes. Shipping is free in Canada on orders over $200, and smaller orders ship for a flat $10. A kit bought on its own is ordered in for your vehicle and ships to you once it reaches our shop, usually 5–7 days after you order.

    Not sure your vehicle is covered?

    Send us your year, make and model. We'll confirm the kit and give you the installed price.
