I can't find any info for how to get to the fuel pump on a 4th gen...I took the back seats out but am not seeing any way to get to it. Help please?

There is a black thing you unscrew between the back seats and the trunk.

you will see it when you take the trunk board off (the spare tire cover). It's like a grey plastic over (could be black, but I am pretty sure it's grey). Anyway, there are a couple screws you take out, and two fuel lines you have to unplug. From there it is pretty much moving it around to pull it out, but be careful because the floater sits in there kinda funny.

That is one way but that could be hard to do cause the pump is almost a foot long with the strainer on it. The other(semi difficult) way is to completly take your tank out. That would make pulling the pump out much easier. Would suggest that the tank is as empty as possible. I did mine with about 3-5gals in it and it was hard. Just my $.02
