Take a look in the repair manual. That should help.

Remove the carpet that covers that area, look in there and you should find about 8 nuts that you need to remove and then pull the panel out.

Wow. there was a few hidden ones. Got it out, trunk latch broke, after 2 hours of going in the trunk and opening it it finally worked some reason. blah blah too much work for it. thanks for the help.

It's pretty easy. Remove trunk liner and then take out all the nuts holding that panel on with either deep sockets or a nut driver. I think there's like 8 or 9 of them but they're all 9 mm if I remember correctly.
