hey guys, i ahve my car in the garage at the moment, and i really need to access what is underneath the parcel shelf

my reason is, i went to audio installers as all i can hear is that stupid wood part, under the 6X9's rattling, they said it was common, however wanted to charge me $300 to sound-deaden it.

can any of you guys tell me how i can access it.
i have so far removed the back seat (where your bum goes) as well as the head rests, but now im stuck?

anyone?

i want to stuff it with all these rags i have, cheap way of doing it but i dont care.

There are three bolts at the bottom of the back rest. Take them out, slide the back rest upwards and it can be removed.

smurfy? i have a gas tank in the back, and i mean i wonna stuff rags throughout the parcel shelf so its stops rattling,

ps: i have a work shop manual thingy (for all magnas, is that what your talking about) it has nothing to do with gaining access to underneat parcel shelf.

what you mean, use the boot?

i have gas tank in there, and you can access underneath anyway? or can you?

what tool could i use to undo the centre bolt, as i have just started to round the bolt, so i need something that will slot right in and BANG, zip it out.
