Remove the headliner and fold down the rear seats. Remove the side covers inside the trunk as shown in the video: it is recommended to use a plastic tool to avoid scratching the bodywork.

Now remove the upper side plastics. Remove the boot and unscrew the upper fixing element of the shock absorber.

Lift the rear of the vehicle, secure it and remove the wheel in question. Clean the lower fixing elements, support the horizontal crossbar and remove the shock absorber in question.

Proceed in reverse for assembly. Good job!
