Removing Rear Trim Panel

Hi,

I've used this forum a lot over the past few weeks and it has helped me with so many things. This the first time I've posted though. I bought a 1999 996 cab a few weeks ago. I have a sort of clanging noise in the rear panel behind the drivers seat when making a left turn (car is RHD). I read the TSB for this and have an idea of how to fix, but I can't remove rear panel trim because of the catch that the rear seat back locks onto. The TSB says to remove with a 6 mm allen wrench. I raised the top a bit and can see it is turning all the way through. But the bit that it bolts into is round so I can't stop it from turning with any tools I have. Has anyone had this problem and found a solution. I'd appreciate any input. I've wasted hours on it but still not ready to just live with noise or only make right turns.

Cheers,

Will
