rear tailgate paanel removal

[cuprabod]

Hi, I have just had the tailgate of my cupra dinged by a shopping trolly or something and I want to get it removed. Its only a small dent but it really stands out ( well to me anyway) but the trouble is they will need to get at it from the other side so I am not sure if they will need to take the whole of the rear interior panel off or how it comes off, The dent is in the middle of the tailgate, Thanks

I just ripped mine off because I was applying the good old brute force and ignorance (and it won't be needed).

A more sensible method is to remove the two screws in the handles and then poke around the sides to locate where you can insert a flat bar to help lever out the absolute PITA clips that VW/SEAT use. Depending how much room they need, you may need to remove the screen surround section too which makes life a little easier. Start at the top with the flat bar and work your way round iirc
