Help Please - Interior Trim Removal Rear Carbon Panel

Kev.H · 03-06-2010, 08:28 PM

Some total c**t has opened their door on my rear panel

all be it very slightly so I need a trip to dent devils to remove.. fingers crossed ! But how do you remove the rear carbon trim panel ? Does anyone know if the carbon bit comes off on its own and then the surrounding panel any help would be much appriciated

Is the metal behind quite accessible no sound deadening etc ?

The pic below shows the very slight crease picked out by the window frame reflection

You have to remove the rear seats (seat base and side 1/4 bolsters) to take the panel out - it's one piece (i.e. the carbon bit is plastic welded onto the panel) It just comes off on pop clips - just work your fingers around it and carefully pull once youv'e removed all the bits necessary.
