I had it on my W211 E55--a great option, but not offered on E60.

Shouldn't be that hard to hack one up with a couple of linear actuators, a button, some fuses, etc...

On US models there is a button for opening the trunk accessible once the driver's door is open. The trunk release button is exposed when the door is open.
