Hello estebanfree,

I am glad I stumbled on your thread. I am trying to install a 360 degree camera system (bought from AliExpress) for my Picasso. For the rear camera, I need to remove the inner trim of the rear hatch to run the cabling. you have done the same for your project. :-k

Do you have any more photos of your disassembly that i can use please? I ordered a standard car trim removal set from AliExpress. Would I need any more specialised tools? Any tips or problematic areas you would like to share.

Thanks a lot in advance.
regards :)

Hi, I made original vision 360, JBL sound system, front seat heater, webasto parking heater with remote and electric trunk foot triggered for my old 7k grand picasso. Your car is 5 seats or 7 seats?

Have you got a tutorial for this electric tailgate installing?
Waiting for your kind reply.
Hi, as I'm new owner of C4 GP2 from end of 2014 with no electrical tailgate, I was looking for information how to install it in my car and I'm glad to see thic topic.
I was wondering what elements I need to have it done in my garage:
- two tailgate actuators (electric)
- closing motor
- close button for tailgate
- open/close foot sensor (optionionally)
- anything else...?

Is there any separate control module for this or it is operated by BSI controller?

I'm also interested in electric part of installation - cables/connectors - where should it be connected etc.
When manual part is done - as I understand, it has to be activated with DiagBox, hasn't it?

Thnx for help..

I think this has been covered before - it's a completely different tailgate, the wiring harness is different and there are many other components and sensors that you can't see for anti pinch protection etc' so it's not a matter of fitting in the struts and telecoding. It's probably why there has been no response as it's not cost effective to do.

I sent him a private message. But he hasn't been on the forum for 2 years. The subject is very important to me, at least I would appreciate it if you could send him an e-mail on my behalf. Thanks esteemed admin.

If your car has a foot trigger you have MK2 Picasso. You can add additional lights on boot lid and you can add open / close button on dash board. There is no option open / close inside of cabin.

i installed a button for control it on closing only fro driver seat

i bought on ebay a module for foot operation

have you an electrical diagram and the type of connector I need to attach the module to the main unit?

Hello friends,
I have a Grand C4 Picasso MK2 from 2017 and I want to upgrade my tailgate to open via the key without the foot sensor.

What parts do I need?
And does anyone have a tutorial?

PS! I have already have success in upgrading the following:
- Nav system from RCC to NAC.
- Speedometer from black white to colour display.
- Back lights to LED 3D lights.
- Front lights to Xenon lights.

Hi there!

I have a 2015 Grand C4 Picasso.

I need to replace my reverse camera. Can you tell me how to remove the interior tailgate panel/trim to access the reverse camera wiring from the interior?

Many thanks!
