Pugs? You mean the grey plugs holding the trunk liner? Get a flat head and pop them up. It will take a bit of force.

If all else fails, your dealership can install them for you.

+1 I simply get the flat head in between the top half and the bottom portion then rotate the flat head to pop the top half up, once you get the top half out a bit its easier now to just pull with your hands

are the top and the bottom half suppose to separate? i got the inner part in but now the lining around the trunk seems pretty loose. Is this normal after the install?

No it should be just how it was before. Did you break the tabs on the clip? Pictures might help.

a cheap panel tool (looks like a big flat head with a v shaped notch in the middle) from your local parts store is the way to go. Saves time and headache.
