Does anyone know how to remove the inner boot panel off the z3 m coupe?

I've un-screwed the 2 screws in the pull down handle bit but cant work out how it pops off?

Basically i was putting my private plate on and when i came to screw the plate panel back on i pushed the screw thread into the panel of the car; so need to get into it to put it back in place to be able to attach the plate panel

HELP would be MUCH appreciated wink

Once the screws are off its only held on by clips. A wedge will Prize it off and work your way round. Happened me too changing a plate, clips hold it on suprisingly well.

THANKS - worked as you suggested!

However you cant cant to the back of the bloody thing!! Had to poke it out with a kebab stick, then it dropped on the floor and i lost it in the dark and ended up putting it back in the other way round!!

Still worked though so THANKS

Glad it worked..

The little threaded gromet things are a bad design, I had hassel trying to get to mine too when it fell into the inner skin of the panel.
