Default power glass and hatch possible???

i dont knoe if this is the rite section. 95 blazer 4door hatch. i know they make power lift gate. i got the hatch verison, is it possible to maake it power that i press a button and it goes up all the way and press the button again and it close all the way and also with the gate too power up and down. is it possible? Can i just install a power strut thingy on each side and disable the latch on the gate? was thinking that i could wire something up that after the latch (that releaces the glass) open the glass then struts open the glass the rest the way up?. i want to be able to press a button and the back opens up and then closes up. that if im sitin in the drivers seat i can open and close with out getting up maybe the glas seprate from the gate that i press the buton and i can just open the glass then another to open the gate? suggestion/ ideas

It'll be completely custom. The s-series truck was never offered with a power liftgate.

I certainly hope you know something about electronics. This would be an intensive project to do. You would need motors to make it open and something to control said motor so it doesn't keep going when its opening or closing. you need something to make the motor operate in the reverse (or a separate motor) which could be as simple as a toggle switch (which could make it look like a hack job) or a complicated circuit. Might be a good idea to see these systems operate in a vehicle that already has them. Or better yet, find the parts in a junkyard and see if they can be installed into your truck. Good luck! It would be an interesting project if you go forward with it.
