Does anyone have an idea how to take off the boot panel? (picture below)

I assume its just held on by studs similar to the door panels but I don't want to start tugging and pulling and end up breaking anything.

There are no visible screws or anything.

Any help is appreciated!

It is held on with sprung metal clips, just prise it off mate, once you've made a start, it'll come off easily enough :)

Sprung metal clips similar to the rear door handles?

Do you know roughly where each one is? In the corners? Sides? etc.

Cheers

There are quite a few, 6 or 8?

They seem to give up when you pull the panel off, I found a few had fallen off in the process, but it's easy to see where they go :)

I think I pulled at one edge near the bottom of the bootlid, and once one was away, I could see the rest, and slid a pry-bar in there to get closer to them...
