How do I remove the left trunk liner

I found the hydraulic leak for the convertible top. I am not sure how to remove the left side of the trunk’s liner. I found a video on the 350 sedan, but we have additional pieces. Hopefully there is a tutorial.

See the fluid accumulation

I have A leak on the right (passenger) side case cover lift cylinder. How do you remove this? I need To remove to send away to be remanufactured. Any help is appreciated.
I also noticed a little amount of fluid by the pump itself, unsure if both sides need it, but the passenger side has a lot of fluid. Any help is appreciated

Found the leak and were able to stop it?

I have exactly the same issue. None of the cylinders are wet. No apparent sprayong, either "just" a considerable "puddle" under/next to the pump as in your picture. Lost about '2 cups' woth of hydraulic fluid while operating and it is leaking out by the left exhaust and spare wheel compartment.

--> Have you been able to identify the leak? How did you fix it?

I have the same problem, I'm worried it may be a leak from the pump itself.
All the cylinders look and feel dry, the only sign of a leak is a puddle of hydraulic fluid as in your picture...
From everything I've read online, the weak points are the main tonneau lift cylinders, so it "may" be this but I recorded a video with my phone in the boot whilst operating the roof and I can see the fluid go down but nothing coming out of the tonneau cylinder...

Heres a link to the online manuals for the soft top. https://lemon-manuals.la/Mercedes%20...207%20Chassis/

When you open the link above you can click the tabs I underlined in green at the top of the page of the photo below to navigate the different sections.
