To remove the inner panel of the tailgate on the Volkswagen New Beetle, first open the boot: this will allow you to loosen the screws located inside the two recesses for hand insertion. Once these screws are removed, start to unclip the internal clips that secure the panel, so that it can be completely removed from inside the tailgate.

Once the old panel is removed, insert the new one, securing it with the clips and fixing it with the appropriate screws.
