Brilliant, followed the vid and changed the handle, couldn't have done it without. But tape the 10mm socket onto the extension to stop it coming off and then having to fish inside the tailgate with magnet.
Really useful video as I have just had to replace the tailgate release switch. Two points, on the later tailgates with the wider housing there are 8 bolts, not 6 and they are 8mm not 10mm. Whole operation took about25 minutes :-) :-)
Thank you. Saved me a few quid and some headaches ! FYI: got tailgate release switch from Massey 4X4 on ebay for £19 + p&p ....but wouldn't mean much without your great video.
Thank you so much for this video. It helps me trmendously to change the liftgate switch. Interestingly the socket I need to use to remove the flange bolt is 8mm
powerfulukltd looks like the same car you fitted side steps to in another video. I’ve watched most of your vids but never expected to see my car in one haha.
Hi Henry, what was wrong with your boot release if you don’t mind me asking? It’s just that mine keeps opening by itself. I even took the fuse out but it’s still doing it. Was this the fault that you had? Regards
Thanks good video, what if the tailgate is stuck shut how do I get it open. have got the panel off but it won't con right off as stuck at the bottom so can't access the bolts
Thank you for the video. Do you know where I can order a rear handles on my LR Freelander 2 (2007) and shipping to Iceland? I really needs. I will be grateful if you answer my question. Thanks Adam
Nah you made me very angry now I wanted to fix the silver number plate lights and boot opener cos mine snapped or broke yesterday I'm trying to fix it on ebay it costs like 200 pound from China

Thanks, used this along with the other video on how to change the tailgate door switch and worked a treat..
I always find powerfulukltd videos easy to follow with step by step instructions. Helped me a lot upgrading my Freelander 2.
Nice one chap. Got sold a FL2 with dud switch, immensely helpful in replacing it. Thanks again.

Es usted mi salvación , mil gracias por sus enseñanzas.
Thank you so much for your videos, they are so helpful!
So, I’ve just watched this in preparation for fitting a reverse camera and I’ve noticed that that’s my actual car! I’m driving this now.
Wow small world ! I think i borrowed this from a local car dealer !

Just excellent! S clear and totally made the job a doddle for me 👌
Great video, DO you have top disconnect the battery before doing this??
Excellent. Thank you. Made it easy to change my faulty boot release.

the land rover part number is BYP500220
They are 36p from Land Rover
Great instructional video, very helpful. The same can't be said for the redundant 80s porn music in the background drowning out your voice.
Got to respect a man that confesses to watching porn in the 80's !
@@simonjefferson nooo, I watch 80's porn now. In the 80's I was watching 50's porn, so saucy
Any idea what the part number is? or the normal name for it?
Hi the land rover PN for this item is LR020189
Thanks mate, i ended up ordering one the other day. took me a few hours to work out what the part number was. :)
Took me a while as i was on vacation for last couple of weeks
nice but the music is a bit too loud...no music needed lol
Hi - it was an early video - all newer videos have no music - just the sweet sound of my voice !
I presume a 2007 is in essence the same procedure
show me how it works for a freelander I
Thanks but I'd rather hear you than the music.
yes no music on the newer videos..
Senku veri Match
please drop the music I cant hear a thing you are saying
Great - until the nuts are seized and the bolts break off of the plastic inside. :(
