Well, so much for THAT plan....
Thanks to the information you guys passed along, I was able to locate the Bose sub -- but unfortunately, it's mounted to the metal rear tub of the hatch. That rear middle foam piece you have to remove to access it won't come out until you remove both plastic side panels in the hatch. (It's long enough so it stretches way under the ends of them on each side.) I got the passenger side plastic rear trim panel completely unsnapped, only to find it still wouldn't come loose until I also removed the plastic trim piece with the rear hatch light on it, that it tucks underneath.
That panel refused to pull loose for me, and I started putting a crease in the plastic trying to pop it free, so I gave up and reassembled everything. (Managed to break a plastic clip in the process too. Ugh.)
So yeah .... if you want to get to the stupid thing, they make you take apart ALL of the plastic making up the rear hatch/trunk area to do it. Not worth it.
