Anyone try putting a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) receiver on an older Model X to gain phone entry?

I have a hypothesis that I'd like to try out and was wondering if anyone else tried this before: putting a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) receiver pulled from a newer salvaged Tesla on my 2016 Model X to gain phone entry?
The newer models allow for walk up unlock/start via BLE when it detects your phone nearby - which I really want on my older Model X.

On Legacy X (and S). Your key fob is the only key
