Replacing rear chrome hatch trim
Does anyone know how easy it is to remove / replace this piece? I opened my hatch under our basketball goal and it hit the handle that raises and lowers it, chipping a piece of the chrome. I'm about to sell my GLS63 for a newer model and was hoping to replace this piece to avoid getting dinged for the chip on it. Thanks!

Or a link to a guide or parts directory that could help me see how it's attached. Thanks!

How did you come up with the part number?

It wasn't clear to me if that part number was for your car, the other car, or a generic example.

Yes, the part above is the actual part number. I'm still not sure how to remove the old one but figure I'll just order a new one and give it a shot. Guessing it just snaps in so need to figure out where the clips are.
