We have a 2011 Range Rover, and we had 2 E53 X5s. The Range Rover 2003-2011 tail gate lock, unlock button, hinges, loading dock material....100% BMW. So yes...a Range Rover tailgate sourced from a BMW!!!!! Remember BMW owned Range Rover for a while. The E53 came out in 1999, the Range Rover in 2003. The Range Rover to this day, still has TONS & TONS of X5 parts.
