That's probably because it was on qashqaiclub.co.uk, and not here.

I have one on a a Kadjar, and the electrics are similar (read same).

The control unit is connected to the vehicle can bus which monitors the state of the vehicle.

The dash button only works when the vehicle is stationary or the drivers door is open.

The tailgate control interfaces to the OE push button on the tailgate. So it only works as OE, on mine I can open it via the remote.

No problem. I'll take pictures and give feedback when I'm finished.

thought i'd just goo for it and order the kit - got to the pay page and a further $68 had been added for carriage -- making it $468 - IS THIS CORRECT being a tight meanfisted yorkshire lad had hoped club discount or special price might have applied?????
