X4 Trunk Rattle

Hello guys. I’m a happy owner of an X4! Unfortunately I’m suffering same issues that I had on my previous F30 3 Series car. Rattles inside of the car. I did some research on the forum:

http://x3.xbimmers.com/forums/showth...ghlight=rattle
http://x3.xbimmers.com/forums/showth...ghlight=rattle

And I’m pretty sure that the solution is on the trim panel in the trunk (rattle 1 and rattle 2 images)

My question is:
How can I remove the trim? (Part number 3 in this link / trim trunk image attached )
http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/show...diagId=51_9690

Is it just a matter of prying it of / pull it? I don’t want to mess anything. I already have the fuzzy tape that used to correct all rattles on the 3 series car.
Thanks for your help!

Yes, you just need to pry it off. I applied a special rattle tape and all the parts where the plastic meet plastic
