Hey guys. Im having an issue removing my rear hatch on the car im parting out. I know about all the bolts but when it comes to the wiring no one has givin a clear answer on how to remove it. Im looking all around the hatch for a plug to undo but cant find it. There are two wiring bunches going into the hatch. one on each side. How do i disconnect them safely!!?? Someone is coming to pick up the hatch right now need help please!!!

Ive searched to no avail

Just in case anyone is wondering. There are plugs behind the plastics in the bottom of the hatch and you have to fish them all the way out the top where the rubber grommets are.

So the harnesses run down the sides of the hatch lid frame? No disconnect at the body harness? Instead, the body harness run through the hatch frame if I read this correctly.

Thanks!
