Has anyone removed the panel from their rear lift gate? I can see two plastic rivet type pins toward the bottom of the gate but that's all, and i really don't want to damage anything trying to get it off.

 

its in my to do list (shave rear wiper) but havent gotten that far yet

 

Same here. (what he said). But judging from how all the door panels come off, I'm sure that's all you do - pop the two hold pins and lift it up.

Don't let the Emergency Hatch Release jump out at you though!

 

Ya know i hadn't even considered shaving the rear wiper, but now that you mention it that's a great idea since the wiper is part of my rattling woes. What I'm trying to do is dynamat the rear lift gate to reduce vibration and stiffen up the metal abit to reduce the flex. I would like to sound deaden the whole rear but one step at a time.

 

Yup, Chevy could us done us a favor and made that rear wiper an option. I know I would've gone without it.

Me too. I use it though, at the risk of feeling like a soccer mom.

 

LOL!....

 

i would also like to know, these 2 12's be rattling everything back there. i really think this whole car is going to get dynomatted. the rear rattles badly, and it looks like the rear gate flexes about an inch. it is funny listening to music and hitting the rear wiper, it bounces all over the glass.

 

See, jaydogg you know exactly what i'm going through!

 

i feel your pain, expecially with 1100 watts rms
