Parcel Shelf Removal and Installation

Remove the rear seat. On later models remove the rear upper quarter panel by pulling down & out to disengage the retainer clips, then sliding the roof leg out from under the trim panel over the door. Detach the rear seat belts through the slot in the rear parcel shelf. Pry up the plastic clips securing the rear parcel shelf. Then lift up & out to remove it from the vehicle. Remove the speaker retaining screws or tabs. If the speaker seal has bonded with the metal shelf, hold the tabs & pry the housing away from the metal. Disconnect the electical connector & remove the speaker. Install in reverse order. Good luck!

The rear wheel bearing and hub unit are replaced as a unit.

1. With the vehicle on the ground, loosen the spindle nut.
2. Raise the vehicle and support it safely.
3. Remove the rear wheels.
4. Remove the brake disc retaining screws.
5. Unbolt the brake hose brackets from the knuckle.
6. Remove the caliper bracket mounting bolts and hang the caliper out of the way with a piece of wire.
7. Remove the brake disc. If the disc is frozen on the hub, screw two 8 x 1.25mm bolts evenly into the disc to push it away from the hub.
8. Remove the spindle nut and pull the hub unit off of the spindle.

Clean the backing plate and the mating surfaces of the brake disc and hub with brake cleaner. Clean the spindle, washer, and hub with solvent.
To install:

1. Inspect the hub unit for signs of damage or wear. If the bearings are worn, the entire unit must be replaced.
2. Install the hub unit and spindle washer onto the spindle. Install the spindle nut but do not tighten it.
3. Install the brake disc and tighten the retaining screws to 7 ft. lbs. (10 Nm).
4. Install the brake caliper and tighten the mounting bolts to 28 ft. lbs. (39 Nm). Install the brake hose brackets onto the knuckle and tighten the bolts to 16 ft. lbs. (22 Nm).
5. Install the rear wheels and lower the vehicle.
6. With the vehicle on the ground, tighten the new spindle nut to 181 ft. lbs. (245 Nm), then stake the nut with a punch.
7. Tighten the wheel nuts to 80 ft. lbs. (108 Nm).
8. Test the operation of the brakes.

ADJUSTMENT

The wheel bearings are not adjustable or repairable and should be replaced if found defective.

Thanks for using FixYa!!

You've got to remove the upper cushions of the back seat to access the screws to allow you slide the parcel shelf forward. $80 labor, $2.00 bulb.

jack up and suport the car proplerly (not on the sissor jack)remove wheel don't forget to crack off wheel bolts before jacking up
when you look at the brake caliper on the inner side at the bottom you will see bolt it will be either 12 mm or 14mm head remove this and the body of will lift up may need a bit of help from a pry bar then the pads can be removed the caliper piston wil need to be pushed back a big pair of grips is best for this then clean up where the brake pads sit so they are not a tight fit as they will bind if there tight then refit in reverse order
but remember if your unsure this is your brakes so get someone who knows what there doing to check them before refitting the wheel

Why do you need to remove the parcel shelf and the seats just to tint the window?
If you are using film tint lay it on the outside of the window cut it a little larger than you need it. Clean the inside rear window then use a squirt bottle with soapy water in it spray the window roll out you tint using a squeegee to remove air pockets. Finally trim the edge with a razor blade window tinted.

Did the water short the system out and blow all the bulbs?

Unfortunately, these are not very simple. If you have a factory high mount brake light-meaning not one in a spoiler, you have to remove the rear seats, the rear parcel shelf and then the 3rd brake light. the 3rd brake light I believe is an LED setup which get replaced as an assembly which inserts into the housing. If you need further guidance let me know.

Thanks,

First remove the rear seat bottom cushion (grab the front edge roughly in the center of each seat position and pull up firmly, and it'll unclip and come out). Then fold down the rear seatbacks. Now, the side bolsters for the seats (between the seatbacks and the doors) have to come off. First, pull down strongly near the bottom (there's an upward-facing hook there that clips onto a ring and holds the bottom in place). Pull down and forward and it'll come off. Then slide your hand about 75% of the way up, and pop the bolster straight forward to pop out a retaining clip. Finally, you can remove the top of it from its mount, and you'll have the bolster out. Repeat for the other side.

Go into the trunk and look up at the bottom of the rear shelf. The harness plug for the third brake light is there - unplug it.

Now, back in the rear seat area, just grab the front edge of the parcel shelf and lift upward to pop it loose, and the whole thing will slide forward. Then you can remove your speakers.

Install is the reverse of disassembly.
