The next step involves taking out the deck side trim box RH and then you should remove the rear mat followed by the deck floor board assembly.

Take out the rear No. 2 seat assembly followed by removing the rear floor finish plate and then proceed with the removal of rear seat side garnish cap and deck side trim cover RH and deck side trim RH.
