Is this a way to reduce your weight?

There are bolts top of the hatch. Unbolt them and there you go! There also might be some wiring you need to unplug from the third brake light.

You get a wrench and unscrew them from the hatch itself. Very easy i have done it before

You have to take the headliner out first, which requires you to take out the rear-view, the visors, and both lights, then there's the big plastic screw in the center-back area, turn in it 90°, and pull it out.

After that, there's 4 12mm bolts, 2 on each hinge. Then you might have to pound it a bit from the bottom, there's this wierd glue **** that they use. The wire harness is a bit of a bitch too, but work with it and you'll get it out. It's for the rear brake light, the wiper, and the defroster.
