I pulled down the front half of the headliner and fixed the front sunroof drains on my JSW. Now I need to fix the rear drains. Does anyone have a tutorial on how to removed the interior trim in the cargo area, so I can get to the drains?

I have a Bentley manual, but it isn't too helpful on the JSW interior trim.

I repaired mine after watching a YouTube video on it about a year ago. If I remember correctly there are only two torx screws which must be removed in the rear cargo lower panels, which hold the chrome bag clips and everything else just unsnaps. I know I was a bit hesitant about breaking the top panel by the window but it just popped off. There are no tricks or gotchas to unsnapping the panels and the great thing is that the rear drains are much more accessible than the fronts. Be sure to silicone all attachment points. Mine has not leaked a drop front or rear after my $8 repair - the cost of silicone. Think I queried something like VW pano rear drain repair or something similar. It's out there on YouTube so keep digging until you find it.
