How to Remove the Trunk Mat Lock of Honda XRV?
2 Answers
Open the driver's side door of Dongfeng Honda. Lift up the trunk. Then lift the cover plate at the bottom of the trunk. There are two chrome-plated buckles in the two corners inside the mat. Unscrew the screws and the job is done. Open it from inside, the driver's position. You can open it under the driver's seat. There is a lever near the door on the driver's side floor to open the fuel tank cap and the trunk.
Removing the trunk mat clips on the Honda XR-V is something I've done before, and it's quite simple. Usually, the clips are located at the corners of the mat, secured with plastic fasteners. First, open the trunk and identify where the mat meets the body. Most of the time, the clips are push-type—just press firmly downward or pull outward until you hear a click, and they'll release. If they don't budge, don’t force it; the mat might be too tight or debris could be stuck. Try wiping the area with a damp cloth first. After removal, check the clips for damage or wear—this makes replacing the mat easier later. I usually clean my trunk every few months since dust on the mat can shorten the clips' lifespan. Once you’ve done it once, you’ll see the structure is straightforward. DIY saves repair shop costs and teaches you a skill. Remember, don’t toss the mat around—let it dry completely before reinstalling.
