Hi guys, has anyone on here retrofitted a powerlift on a facelift Insignia? I’ve done a search on here and can’t find much about it.

Bcm programming is quite difficult. Because they have to request a vci code to program the power tail gate in and more than likely will get declined.
There's a few different options/routes you can take.
Try get VX to program you a 2nd hand bcm with a cars vin number which has all the options you have plus powertail gate. Then change the vin to your car.
Otherwise you can look in breakers for cars with powertail gate, take their wiring and switches. Take their bcm (again only if they have the same options)
Use an eeprom programmer to copy your vin on said bcm.
Rules and regulations have been changed for independant programmers. VX/Opel have taken their rights away for programming anything that involves car pass.
They have also increased how much they charge independant programmers per configuration/program.
So most things now run through Mr dealer.
Hope this helps.
