A tonneau/ boot question....

I'm in the middle of body work and paint on my vert. My questions is how does the boot/black trim part come of the tonneau? I know there are screws by the seat beats, release handle and in the back middle. Is there double sided tape holding the rest on. I know there was double sided tape on the side spoilers therefore I think its on the boot panel too. Any help would be great, Thanks. (sorry if i sound confusing, dont really know what the part is called)

Re: A tonneau/ boot question....

when i removed mine it was applied with what looked like contact cement
in a s-type method had to be real cautious in removing as to not break the fiber board

once it started to break bond it came right off
