2011 XC70 cargo side-panel removal

Post by instarx »

I have looked everywhere I can think of and cannot find any guidance on removing the passenger side cargo area panel. Can anyone point me to some instructions? I need to replace the latch mount that holds the rear seat back in place and I have to get the panel off to do that. Thanks.

Never mind. I gave up and used a Dremel to cut out a hole big enough to unbolt and remove the broken latch striker plate and replace it with a new one. Then I printed a replacement trim panel with my 3D printer. Looks great. More than one way to skin a cat.
