You need to remove the left rear wheel and then the inner fender well, fairly simple. You will see the whole set up clearly. I messed up mine and fixed it this way.

I have a hatch with the entire rear carped pulled out. So i can see everything clearly right now, and i "think" i know where it goes. but My big question is why didnt it come open? I tugged really hard and i would have expected it to open. Is there any special procedure?
