2001 V70 Hatch Latch

My 2001 V70 hatch latch has stopped working. Kind of hard to use the back cargo area going over the seats. I have been told that I need to replace the electric door lock. I can not figure out how the get the interior coverings off. There are 4 scews holding the door covering in place but there seems to be some kind of body clips under the molding. Any diagrams would be real helpful.

thanks
Larry

You will have to get the trunk open to get the cover off without messing it up. Not sure the best way to get it open though.

I did have it opened the other day, so I hope it will work periodically. I had taken 4 screws out around the molding on the door. I just could not figure out how to get the molding out so I could disconnect the lock part of the latch, if that is possible. If I get it opened again do you have any suggestions what I should do.

Thanks
