How Do I Remove the Rear Hatch Panel?

[SlickmisterN]

Hello all. I am trying to dynamat my car and Ive hit a snage. I cannot figure out how to remove the interior panel off the rear hatch door. There are two screws on either side of the hatch but after that im lost on what to do. I have done several searches but came up with nothing, I really dont want to break any plastic latches. Please help. TIA.

It probally has plastic snaps kind of like the door panel. After removing those screws try and pry up an area with your hands or something else and see if it pops out. There's probally a dozen or so of those plastic clips holding it down. Again i'm not tottaly sure on this.

if it's like the door panels you can grab a table knife or something and put a paper towel or something around it to protect the paint under the panel and just slide it under and pull out. Try to slide it in deep and pull directly outwards b/c if you try to pry instead it can end up digging into the paint.

There are also plastic pop rivets.

Well I figured it out and got it all back together now. My subwoofer sounds a lot better now, and no rattles. Unfortunately I broke a few plastic clips, nothing a little 3M double sided tape couldn't fix.
