no you'll need to swap everything, wires, pipes etc. bit of a pain if cars dont have the same fusebox as well. if it was me id just get an aftermarket remote cl kit instead

yeah the non-cl cars dont have any of the wiring or vac pipes, so need to put that in as well. its not that difficult till you get to the tailgate, thats a bit of a faff! also the boot lock & button is different, so to get that working need to take the old lock off your car and fit the tumblers to the cl lock.  again not too hard just fiddly
