Crewmax back interior panel

Has anyone removed this? or possibly have instructions or insights on how to remove it?

If its not clear, this is the metal panel behind the rear seats in a crewmax (maybe others) - I want to be able to mount some things to it, but want to remove to do so I don't screw all the way through (and get a better fit).

 

Nobody. Huh. Bummer.

 

Pretty sure some threads in here describe removing this panel to get to the rear window motor and regulator mechanism.

 

Have you considered a plywood insert in front of it for a mounting surface? Seen a few go down this road.

 

@2mchfun I have - but need a way to secure it - and would likely want to screw/mount to that panel, which is why I’m curious about removal.

@KNABORES - I’ll do a search for the window motor. I searched initially but didn’t use the right keywords I guess

Oh man. That’s awesome. My second search also didn’t find it - but that video is great. Super simple. Thanks a ton @KNABORES

 

I’ve been trying to champion the practice of using Google to search for what you want and add Tundras.com to the end of the search. Works like a charm.

Believe that’s the same video from the link above.
