That is the correct operation, it cannot be closed remotely without modification.

The problem is no one is making them anymore. The original guy over in the UK Jez died. Then we got someone in Poland making them to sell (Not quite as good but still usable) but now I don't see anything at all out there?

Maybe someone can post back if they do know where to get one. Mine is still working 100% after all these years as I started that thread back in 2020.
It sure is handy and I still can't believe Jaguar did not have this as stock.

Well with some more searching I did find a fairly current listing BUT it is out of stock.
Remote Boot Close

It's from Poland so maybe it's the guy I mentioned above? Anyway he has a lot of feedback and I would send him a message to see if he can produce anymore of them.
Post back if you find out anything.
