How to Remove the Rear Storage Compartment in Edge?

Then pry from top to bottom. After prying it open, unplug the wiring connector inside, release the six clips on the panel, remove the plastic block, and the storage compartment can be taken out. You will notice a protruding plastic tab on top of the power box. Lift it slightly upwards, then slide the power box out along the guide rails.
I'm quite adept at removing the rear storage compartment in the Edge, having done it several times. First, lift the rear seat cushion—there are plastic clips at the front or underneath that can be gently pried loose by hand or with a trim tool. Once the cushion is removed, you'll find the storage box hidden at the rear, usually secured to the body with screws. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove them. Don’t yank it out immediately—there might be small clips at the corners, so carefully pry them open with a plastic trim tool to avoid scratching the interior. Avoid using excessive force to prevent cracking the plastic parts, and I recommend wearing gloves to protect your hands and interior surfaces. All you need are a Phillips screwdriver and a household plastic pry tool. Once removed, it’s easier to clean out debris or inspect wiring, taking about 20 minutes. When reinstalling, align it properly until you hear a click. A quick tip: regular removal and cleaning can extend its lifespan and prevent mold.
