So I've just spent about 17 hours in total removing this sodding satin grey vinyl wrap with a hair dryer and it's - for the most part - all off.
The wrappers obviously took several bits off the car to wrap the vehicle properly and thus I need to take the same bits off to remove the wrap properly.
Can anyone shed light on how to remove the following:
- Rear boot opening mechanism with BMW badge on it
- Stubby aerial (needs removing from the base as they've wrapped underneath it)
- Third brake light (is this just a pull off job?)
Thanks in advance!

Third brake light,open boot ,remove plastic covers screwdriver required you will need a long socket to remove the 3 nuts holding the light in place ,dont lose the springs these will drop off as nuts are removed then pull light out from outside of boot.
Be careful not to over tighten the nuts when putting back on as this can help to crack the lense

Judging by the fact he has a Badge/Boot opener, he's got a coupe.
I don't think that suffers from the same light cracking issues. It's probably not as easy to access the mounts either

Arial is a torx bit and simply unscrew from underneath and the top and base split in half
