Rear panel removal

[gearguywb]

Searched through Youtube and found a bunch of videos on done panel, dash, head unit, etc removal, but nothing for the rear area.

I want to run power to the rear and install some electrical outlets, so I am searching how to removed the rear side interior panels.

Anyone have suggestions or links?

Thanks!

I just popped out the tray over the wheel well and then it was an easy straight shot to fish a line to the rear door sill

I have heard rumors that you have to destructively remove some parts like the trays in the back which just doesn't seem right. I am also searching for this information for the same reason.

the trays can come out with damage, you lift one side and use a flexible screwdriver attachment

The cleanest way is to remove the rear trim panel and fish everything behind it. I could never snap or break those pockets out, that would drive me crazy. I made a thread on how to do it with the third row, some of it would apply, minus the seat removal. May be worth a look

Third row seat removal to access rear panel pocket, subwoofer install

I’ve done it without breaking the clips to run wiring for my fridge. You won’t break anything if you don’t pry the tray all of the way off. Pop from the rear side and then bend up at the front but don’t pull off. Pic in post #246 here...
