Hi all,
Picked up my PHEV last week and thoroughly enjoying the drive so far :)
I installed a dual dashcam with a rear camera and I was wondering if anyone has removed the inside upper boot panel in order to run the cables through the conduit instead of having the cables dangling:

I managed to get a plastic pry tool in and pop some of the clips on either side, but the lower edge wouldn't budge and I didn't want to break it (just yet...).
 
I did this on my MG5 so not a direct read across but I have found that you do need to be quite firm as clips tend to be both numerous and generously sized/rated on these cars.
 
That top horizontal trim piece is just on clips. You just pry it away and it will come out. The side vertical pieces are held with clips and screws.

Not that you need to know but that top piece is the first piece of the jigsaw to be removed before removing the rest of the boot trims as removing the top piece will reveal the screws that held the other pieces.
 
So did you get the panel removed? what did you have to do to remove?
