Accessing rear shock upper mount nuts on 997 cab- info?

How do you obtain access to the rear shock top nuts? I see there is a cover panel, and once the panel is removed access to the top nuts are probably right under it- but I am not sure how to take off the interior cover panel without damaging something.

Any tips / pointers would be appreciated!

Raise the top a bit so that the rear piece(wing/cover) goes up,then there are two strings attached to the roof that you can access.At the bottom they will pop off,thus releasing the top so that you can fold it forward.Then pry/pull the bottom(plastic/cloth cover back and there are the bolts you want.
Hope that made sense,if not send me a PM and I will forward you my phone number and guide you through.It really is easy once you do it once.
