Hi, is it simple enough to remove the boot trim? I wanna have a look under there to see where a well annoying rattle is coming from, just don't wanna steam in there and snap something then never be able to put it back right!

Cheers!

3 screws hold it in

1 under each of the removable covers to get at the fog lights

1 inside the handle for pulling the boot closed, once they are removed just start at one side of teh trim and gently pull it off

Editing your spelling
the handle is part of the trim so no, it comes off with the whole of the plastic surround.

I found a big long flat blade screwdriver with a rag on the end helped lever the clips off start on one corner and pull open and you will see the several clips, the plastic guides holding these clips can commonly break so lever with the screw driver near them to reduce the chances.
