    I need to replace the tailgate hatch on my 2013 Toyota Prius C ONE. I was able to find a replacement from a junked car. I know how to remove the struts, and the four bolts on the hinges seem fairly self-explanatory, but I can't find any documentation on the washer fluid hose and wiring harness. Does anyone know how to disconnect/reconnect them? Thank you.

    The washer fluid hose was easy. There is a hose barb sticking out of the roof of the car facing the driver's side. Just pull the hose off of it.

    The wiring harness was much more difficult. There is a plastic panel inside the car in the upper corner at the back on the driver's side that says SRS Airbag on it. Pulling that panel off reveals the wiring harness connector.
