How to remove trunk liner for coilover install
Planning on doing a DIY project for coilover install. Anyone know how to remove the trunk liiners to access rear struts? Just want to ask so I don't break anything...

I got my coilovers installed... i didnt end up removing the panels because it didnt seem easy even after removing almost everything.. plus I didnt feel comfortable trying to pull off stuff in the trunk area with the convertible mechanisms around.. at the end you have to cut holes through cover anyways because the dampening adjustement **** is tall and the covers wont seat plus you need a hole in the cover anyway to adjust dampening.. so I cut a circle big enough to let me access the strut bolts aswell. saved me alot of time keep in mind the cover is made of very thick cardboard (around 1 cm thick), so be patient when cutting your PERFECT circle :P. just find a plastic cover to cover the holes so you can access whenever you wana adjust !

Hi Guys
You may find my thread https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sc-...-pictures.html useful when installing your coilovers.
Removing and replacing the trunk trim was covered very well in a thread by poqman, search his posts and you will find it.

Refer to page 74-24 screen print. You need to remove the luggage compartment trim cover first before you can remove the side trim covers. There are multiple plastic tabs you need to remove. When removing the side trim covers take your time and be extra careful. Study the screen print to become familiar with the layout of the trim compartment and take your time removing the parts so you don't cause damage to the parts. Best of luck.
