Got a little project in mind, but need to fully remove the whole back exterior panel where the license plate mounts. Anyone have an exploded view of this area on how to remove it without any damage?

I'd like to know this info too. You got any tips?

Remove the inside trunk lid cover by removing plastic rivets and a couple of bolts that hold the tool tray in place. Once that is removed there are a couple of 10 mm bolts remaining that hold the license plate piece in place. IIRC there is also double sided tape holding the edges of the license plate trim to the trunk lid. The tape in these locations can be gently pryed off with a plastic trim removal tool.
