Hello
I became the owner of a T6 Beach Edition this year, and have noticed a lack of lights for the top bed. These should be ready enough to install if I can get access to the wiring from the leasure battery.
There is a plastic cover on top of the driver's side B pillar that, if I can get it off, should give me access to the wires for the outlet above the driver's seat. I have managed to get some leavers behind the cover in a couple of places, but cannot budge it even a little.
Does anybody have any tips on how to access the wiring up to the bed?
Thank you

Ah, the 3rd dimension that I didn't try. I feel a little dumb now. 
Thank you very much, this should help a lot.

This seems the best place for this - found a great video from a converter detailing a T6.1 front door card removal and refitting with a ton of tips and tricks and a thorough explanation of all the various clips and fixings:
Any tips/tricks/advice on removing this? Looks like a fairly straight forward job to just gently pry it off?
Haven't removed this particular piece myself but yes, usually just get a tool on one edge to pry it up and carefully work your way around

How did you get the air vents out?
I can't remember if something else needs to come off first (like the instrument cluster surround) but a close inspection of the gap between the air vent and the adjacent parts will give a clue. They can be levered out using a plastic trim tool, a little bit at a time either side.

[GUIDE] How to take apart and fix a T6 air vent
Another fiddly thing to fix if the slats have gone out of sync or something is stuck in the vents, like a coin. Mine looked like this, the vertical slats were broken so I couldn't control the airflow to the driver: How to remove the air vent Pull the bottom of the vent away to start to pop the...

If its the same as the T6, take the side panel off (revealed when you open the drivers door see post #3, post #48 may help as well on the 6.1), take the panel that is above the pedals off and you should be able to look inside with a torch and a mirror to see where the fasteners are.
I've had that panel off and don't remember anything difficult about it apart from the lightswitch, there may be a screw in the hole where the switch goes if I remember correctly.

here's a pic of it removed, you may be able to see where the retainers are.
Thanks @Grim Reaper I will try taking the flat panel at the bottom first . The passenger side & glove box was so easy I was wandering why it wouldn’t budge . I already have the side bits and the light switch out .
T6 Caravelle tailgate trim and clips
The clips are quite meaty all the way round that panel. The screw in the light switch had me fooled for a while! Then it is mainly brute force.
That's the one I was looking for, thank you.
