If you're talking about the interior trim on the lift gate, here's what you need to do:
- remove the two lights
- remove 2 screws within the hand holds
- remove the curved plastic trim going up each side of the glass. Pry up gently with a pry tool. There are 3 or 4 plastic tabs on each which mate with lift gate
- pry up the bowden cable release in the center, and be ready to feed it back through the cover
- pry up one side of the lift gate cover with a plastic pry tool, then firmly pull the cover straight away from the lift gate, releasing all of the clips. You'll need to fish the bowden cable release cover through the hole
- replace any damaged clips before reinstalling
Hope that helped.
