How do you get the rear side panels out? The big plastic peace beside the rear bench.
Thanks.
It's a little long process but it's fairly easy.
1.) remove lower hatch plastic piece
2.) remove upper plastic piece that holds the privacy piece
3.) remove rear seat complete
4.) remove about 3-bolts and pull 11-tabs for the side piece to come free
5.) you have to remove the bolt that holds the lower seatbelt.
When I get into work later this morning I'll scan the page in the service manual how to do it.
I think I removed both panels in less that 30mins. But i took my time, saved all the bolts/tabs, labeled them and brought them down to the basement.
If your doing this, you might as well replace the B-Pillar Floor bar with the DC5R. it's lighter and stronger. It's a good mod.
I have the service manual saved on my computer somewhere.... I'll have to dig it up.
Thanks for the help though..... was hoping I didn't have to compeltely pull the rear seat out, damn. ha.
if you find the service manual it's page 18-21.... something like that.
The big rear interior pieces (that the rear passengers lean on) you have to work from front to back. Works from the doors-> the c-pillar area down and around. If any of that makes sense lol.
really? I was able to do mine rear to front.Quote:
