Default Removing rear licence plate backing

can anybody help me with this?

The thing rattles and i want to put some dynamat behind it but cant get it off.

What i am talking about is the black plastic plate that the licence plate screws into. When i take the licence plate off i see two torx screws but they do not allow me to remove the black plastic.

Is there somthing i am missing? Some more hidden screws on the inside of the trunk? Or do i just have to pull harder? Any advice would be great.

Thanks

Default Just pull

That black plastic mount is held to the trunk lid with double sided tape. I doubt that's the source of your rattling, as it's pretty well secured to the trunklid with the tape.

In anycase just pull with all your might. It's just tape.
