Replacing the tailgate/boot seal

[flembot]

I ordered a new boot seal to replace it on my Toyota Aygo 2006. But it seems removing the old one is a bit more work than I thought. Didn't think it through. It seems I need to remove the little gas thing which connects the boot lid and also a cable.

Is there instructions somewhere detailing how to disconnect the boot lid gas cylinder thing?

Gas boot cylinder you mean a gas strut?
They have a clip both ends of the strut pull them out and you can remove also I've added a link on direction from another forum
