If I'm not mistaken there are hinge bolts at the top by roof (peel back headliner) that need to be removed, remove hinge shock mounts, remove plastic undercover to disconnect 3rd brakelight/defogger-->remove. Reinstall and align new hatch and viola. Am I missing anything?

I looked in the service manual and cant find an exploded view of the hatch removal process...can anyone provide more info?

nizz23sd took his off. PM him and ask exactly what he did. Doesn't look too difficult though.
