Default Remove trim on tailgate and above tailgate opening?

I intend to fit a tracker in the rear of my XC60 (having had my previous XC60 stolen after 6 week of ownership) and I need to be able to pass GPS aerial and GSM Aerial cables from the compartment next to the power connector in the side of the boot space, to the top of the tailgate, through the rubber tube that takes all cables, etc., into the tailgate.

In order to run these cables through I need some advice as to how the various trim panels are removed in order to provide access to all of the areas on the required route?

The dealer has done the installations for me when I have had a tracker fitted - all part of the Tracker price, that way I have never had worry about a) where it is fitted or b) how they fit it.

Much easier that way

Thank you for the prompt reply, but it doesn't help as I have bought the tracker - a TK-103, which is adequate for my requirements. It is not tracked on an annual charge, but I can call it at any time from a App on my iPhone and it will tell me, on a map, exactly where it is. It also has many more settings and is a very capable tracker.

I do need, however, to install it as in my previous submission, but I don't want to damage the trim in the process.
