Rear hatch question
 
Ok ive ben searching and cant really find the answer im looking for, so here it is. My rear hatch is loose where in bolts to the body not the glass. How do I tighten it up? It looks like I have to take the inner headliner out is this the case? Iwould just pull it out and check but the headliner is in pretty good shape and dont wanna risk messing it up thanks for the help guys.

pull out the plastic bits that come up the B pillar, pull the trim piece off the rearward most part of the headliner and it will bend down far enough to tighten up those nuts.

you can pop the clips from the rear roof section that secure the headliner to the roof. bending the headliner down may work but you run the risk of pulling the clips from the headliner and tearing the mounting points from the headliner. use your best judgement and exercise caution when playing with the headliner.
