Right install time so i have already started stripping the rear of my car,

I unclipped the seat bench, then undone the Huge Torx bolts which held the rear split seat unit in place.

So now my car has no rear seats

Then i took the boot protector plastic off where when u shut the boot it rests against,

Easy job just 4 torx bolts.. That slides out easy however im now in a major sticking point.

I undone the 4 or 5 torx screws which hold the Rear boot plastic panels in place either side of the boot, however i can seem to work out how it comes off?

I understand there is some of them annoying White plastic clips which pop out, however i tried pulling it as best i could and i couldnt get anywhere...

I would like to get it stripped asap, because as soon as i get it fully sound deadened the sooner i can crack on with the fibreglass boot build and wiring,

So can anyone help me and tell me how the hell i get these plastic parts off?

Cheers,

Pete

Just stripped one of them for work. Think you have to take the rear door card off and there are some more torx under there, but don't quote me. I'll have a look tomorrow n tell you where they all are if you still need to know.

I tried a while ago to get teh rear speakers out. I found them panely were bolted in underneath the white panel there the rear suspension clamps are. I didn't bother in the end, was too much hassle
