How do I take off the front and rear lid release assembly
My cable slipped or something and my rear latch isn't working. I need to remove the lid release mechanisms on the left side of the drivers seat. I removed the the three plastic plugs but can't see in the holes to see what kind of tool I need to loosen the screws deep in the hole. The manual is not clear....Anyone have any tips or what the tool is I need. Any help would be deeply appreciated.

Are you sure your rear deck struts arn't shot? If they are there won't be enough tension to release the rear deck lid when you press the button. If you press the button and hear the electric "click", but the deck doesn't release, have someone lift up on the deck as you hit the button. If the deck won't stay up by itself, it's your deck struts.

You need to use an Allen wrench. A hex driver is too big. I forget the exact size 5mm or 6mm t think. It can be hard to align the end of the wrench with the bolts but they are in there. You don't need to take them all the way out just loosen them a turn or two and pull up on the cover.

When I disconnect the cable....the latch seems to work fined....Its really looking like its the cable that is binding....I am wondering when I put in the Roll bar a month ago, is there I chance that I pinched it...I'm going to lube the hell out of it to see if that works.
