Let's see if I can get a reply to this one
Has anyone fitted / is it even possible to fit an internal handle to open the tailgate from the inside?

A simple push switch has been used to open the tailgate. Simply splice wires into the release handle wiring - Operates in parallel with existing release button and won't work when the outer button won't.

Thanks @petrev, seems simple enough! I'll have a look at at the wiring today, thanks for the heads up.
