So now you know...To remove the top painted panel on this '03 there are NO plastic "rivets" (like referred to in other posts)...instead there are 4 holes in the back of the panel (when spoiler is raised)...use a small punch to push through those holes as there are dimples on the other side...Push on those "dimples" to release the front edge of the top piece...there are small tabs on the rear of that painted panel that will now slide off (towards the rear)..Now that the panel is off, you can begin the removal of the entire assembly (which looks like a sun roof track) from the inside of the trunk...got to take down the carpet first & make sure the spoiler posts are in the down position.

Found a complete replacement assembly on EBAY for $75
