You have to take off the entire interior panel of the hatch. Then there is 1 bolt on the left side on the inside of the hatch if you are looking up at it. You also need to remove your wiper motor so you can reach one of the 4(maybe 5) clips you squeeze and push up to pop the panel off. It is really easy and hard to mess up. The only part you really need to be careful with is pulling off the interior hatch panel because I accidentally broke the little plastic handle that is attached the rear panel by pulling on it a little too hard.

If you want I was about to do a quick photoshop of the pic you posted up to let you know where the clips where on the inside just to help you know where to look.

sorry forgot to resize pic on imageshack so it will be a little big.





the green dots are the clips that you can just squeeze and push them through. The pink dot is the bolt and the yellow shape is roughly the wiper motor. The wiper motor has 3 bolts on it then it comes off. Well after you take the wiper off. To get the wiper off you pop off the little cover right near the base of the wiper and there is just one nut that comes off and it will come right off. I believe all of the nuts and bolts are 10mm.
