QUESTION ON ACCESSING REAR SHOCK MOUNTS

[CG_ACE]

Hope some one can help.

While driving my car I noticed a loud chirping sound from the rear of the car, at first could not find it, today it sounded louder and I decided to do some research. I believe that my sqeaks are comming from the rear DRIVER SIDE shock mount. Can any one tell me how to access these thru hatch?

I cant seem to find an access point in the hatch area and dont want to rip any of the covers on the sides.

I also hope that this fix will also address the tire rub I have on that side. I am also going to add rear spring pads 15mm in the hopes that with a full car I wont have any tire rub. has any body done this and is it easy to do?

Any special tools required?

This is what I plan on getting any advice?

any advice on better or less expensive products appreciated.

But My main desire is for some one to tell me how to take those Carpeted side panels off so I can get at the shock mounts.

thanks,
