Default How to get the interior of the boot lid of

I need to remove the interior part of the boot lid, there are two rubber bits which i take off and can just about move a small part of the interior, does it just pull off with brute force or is there a trick to it

There are a series of screws hidden in the material around the perimeter, They are cross head and have the material stuck to them. Find them with a magnet. The there are 2 screws in the plastic moulding in the centre at the back edge and 2 nuts that hold the warning triangle mounting in place.
