Remove tailgate trim for rear dashcam install

I got it installed. Finally! I didnt end up removing the trim, instead used a coat hanger to get the cable through the holes. See pics. Took a bit of wiggling around but got the coat hanger through eventually then tapes the wire to it and pulled through. IMG_9156.HEIC IMG_9162.HEIC IMG_9161.HEIC IMG_9159.HEIC -

Not yet, it's been raining a bit here so might have another go this weekend. I did try to take it off again, but its just clipped on ridiculously strongly (i guess thats also a good thing) so I might have to route the cable another way. -
Remove tailgate trim for rear dashcam install
Skramit posted a topic in Skoda Kodiaq MKI (2017-2023)
Hi, I couldnt find any other threads describing this... I'm wanting to install a rear dashcam. To do so neatly, I want to run the wire through the existing wiring loom at the top of the tailgate. But to access it and pull through the wire I need to remove the upper tailgate window trim, which means removing the tailgate lower trim first. Can aanyone help with this? The Skoda repair manual says it just unclips and remove, but I can only get the bottom 8 clips to unclip. The clips near the window seem rock solid and wont budge. Anyone have any experience removing the lower tailgate trim? Trying to pull down on the trim (blue circled) and it wont budge. The red arrow clips come off easily. Is there some sort of mechanism I need to release first? Thanks! -
Thread revival. Trying to mount my rear camera. Anyone found a guide how to remove the tailgate window trim? It seems very rigid and Ive tried with a plastic wedge but it wont budge. ANy help? I want to route the wiring through the existing rubber cable loom from the body to the tailgate, but to do that need to remove the window trim.
