pretty easy, but a big PIA.

hatch garnish has to come off, the bolts for them are behind the panels. In the headliner, you'll find the wiring harness and you'll have to unplug it. Take off all your wires, re-run them on the new hatch. take off some bolts by the top of the glass, take off the hatch shocks and wala, that's pretty much it.
