#1 of 3 Rear Hatch Plastic Cover - Connectors by klapkowski

Oct 24, 2010 (9:03 pm)

I have a 2007 Sienna. After getting pulled over for burned out license plate lights, I pulled the plastic cover off of the rear hatch to replace the burned out bulbs. It was difficult to remove and unfortunately I busted several of the plastic connectors that hold the rear hatch cover onto the metal door. I haven't been able to find a place to get new plastic connectors to re-attach it and I don't want to pay the dealer to fix it - can anyone recommend a place to purchase these small parts?
  
Thanks!

Try a junk yard, perhaps? Or an on-line supplier. I got some oil filters from Toyota of Dallas a while ago for decent prices.

I got the cover off, hopefully I didn't break the tabs, but I cannot get the bulb housings out. How did you do that without breaking anything. I got the wire connectors off and directions say twist 90 deg but they don't seem to want to turn in any direction and I do not want to break. I've also tried pushing and pulling. Help!! Don't really want to pay Toyota dealer $80 to change 2 $3 bulbs.
