This DIY guide is for the removal and refit of the rear tailgate trim on the tourer (the plastic panel that the number plates fix on)
I replaced the trim panel as I had some damage on the panel and some top coat issues having had a revive repair last year.
The whole job took about an hour; I did think it was going to be quicker until I came across three big rigid plastic retaining clips. These clips cannot be removed unless the internal carpet trim panel is removed so it took a little longer.
Anyway I will let the pics tell the story so to speak and hopefully it may help out a tourer owner in the future.
Refitting is as they say the reversal to the removal.
