Default High level tailgate trim / spoiler removal to access wash nozzle

Hi all, please can anyone advise or show how I remove my plastic tailgate trim / spoiler to access the high level brake light or wash nozzle. I've read posts saying to remove internal trim to reveal 4x 10mm bolts but only bolts mine has is 4x tailgate hinge bolts. Other posts say to simply use brute force to remove the external trim / spoiler but mine feels too secure for that & I dont want to smash or crack it. Any advice or pictures would be superb.
Thankyou to anyone who can help 👍

Default Thankyou Dell for the help.

To clarify in case other people struggle, you MUST open the tailgate glass to reveal the plastic cover & 5 x10mm nuts to remove ths spoiler to access the washer nizzle & high level brake light. Just opening the whole tailgate does not gain access to allow spoiler removal.
