Citigo tailgate replacement

[Niko8888]

Hi Everyone and Merry Christmas,

 

Unfortunately I crashed my car on the tailgate few days ago, and now I'm trying to replace the tailgate with the new one.

 

Please see pictures below, the only thing that stops me from doing the job is because I can't find which trip planned should I remove in order to get to the strip light clip ,

 

Please help

Your translation of the request for help does not make any sense, the first part was fine.

 

This is unintelligible

I'm guessing that Nico wants to know how to access the connectors for the high-level brake light.

Apologies for not explaining properly,

 

What I mean is that I'm trying to find under which trim panel is located the other side of the cable connector.

 

I hope that makes sense

 

Thanks you

Yes it all makes sense now, looking at the photos and the angle at which the loom goes into the body panel I would say downwards towards trim panel 1. You could confirm this by looking and wiggling the loom now you have unclipped the bellows/gaiter

 

Looking at the length of the loom on the new tailgate I would say the connector is behind panel 1 as it is not long enough to reach to panel 3, you may find that you have to release or remove trim panel 3 to remove panel 1, I cant see which one overlaps the other.
