there is a plug back there and a couple up where the hatch bolts to the car.
you'll also have to unplug the hose for the rear window washer. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)

x2, and BE VERY VERY VERY VERRRRRY careful when unbolting the hatch shocks,
1. the bolt on attatchment sometimes breaks 2. the hatch is HELLA HEAVY and will bonk you if youre not careful once you remove one of the struts... have a friend or two help. --------------------  QUOTE (Galcobar @ Oct 15, 2008 - 2:44 AM)  You want power but have no money.

no need to modify anything! you will have to remove the headliner, but just be careful when pulling the clips off in the back. After you get the clips off (three of them) the rest of it is held on my velcro
