Since I just walked back into the house after having installed the rear fog light hack... that cover was the last thing that went on... that and the two screws on the front of the panel.

Good luck! :cheers:

Hi Starter
My 2005 doesn't have any screws, front being front of car front.
Thanks for the quick reply

Your, "... so I can access my rear trunk latch?" had me thinking how coincidental... since I was just there.

And then there's the 987 part. ;)

mystery solved

there are two metal clips near the top of the plastic cover that fit into holes in the frame that the latch is attached to. Careful prying with a screwdriver will loosen the latch cover.
