Anybody retrofitted assisted trunk opening/closing?

Hello,
Anybody retrofitted assisted trunk?
From WIS and EPC I would need:
- Hinges with hydraulic cylinders and lines and harness (one cylinder fitted with trunk position sensor)
- Lid switch with cover. Curious if the existing electrical harness has the connector for it.
- Different hydraulic control module?
- Different hydraulic power unit?
- Recode a bunch of modules to Trunk Assist Present.
Any info or experience would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
