Electric Tailgate Retrofit Power Tailgate Conversion Kit for BYD Seagull 2023 Tailgate Soft Close Kit

This electric tailgate retrofit is a power tailgate conversion kit with a soft close tailgate for the BYD Seagull (Dolphin Mini) 2023 hatchback, converting the manual rear door into a fully automatic electric tailgate. The rear door opens and closes from the factory remote key, a cabin switch, the door handle or an optional foot sensor, driven by a 12V brushless motor with vehicle-specific brackets. The soft close latch draws the door gently into the lock at the end of travel, protecting the paint and latch, while the plug-and-play harness with OEM-style connectors keeps the original loom intact. Owners of this compact EV get faster, hands-free access to the boot.
