    Anyone have steps/pics/drawings of the proper way to get the liftgate apart? I've got a rear-view camera to install (takes place of one plate light) and from the looks of it, I've got to take apart the interior of the gate to get at it properly (removing the two screws and lense/bulb isn't enough).

    I seen some threads that go into this, but not in the detail that I'm looking for. I've installed an amp in my last vehicle, but it was much easier to do so than my new passat (2000 GLX - Monsoon). I know how to get the wire through the firewall and kind of know how to get it under the carpet in...
